Modern Family star Ariel Winter has straight-up quit Twitter thanks to being bullied, which is super disheartening to say the least. The actress's rep told Us Weekly that she needs a moment to breathe, and said the following via statement:

"Ariel has taken a break from Twitter and engaging with commenters on her other platforms because of the constant negativity she experiences. She needs a moment to breathe and enjoy herself without judgement."

Ariel has been clapping back at trolls even more than usual recently, including a person who tried to insult her by insinuating she was on her period (ummm, kay?).

"A new way to get followers: shock everyone by letting them know that you get visited by a rare disease every month called a period," Ariel wrote at the time. "But also…if I was on my period my ass would be home AF on the couch with a cheese plate on the coffee table, not in the gym."

Meanwhile, the actress' Instagram account is still up, and this is her most recent post:

Come back soon, Ariel! But also, do better, Twitter!
