How to Delete LiveJournal Account on Your Own

When you're ready to delete your LiveJournal account, there are several steps you can take to complete the job. According to the LiveJournal website, you can do it yourself in these five steps:

  1. Go to the LiveJournal website and navigate over to the 'Accounts' page.
  2. On this page, you will choose between deleting just a community or deleting your profile via your username. These options can be accessed in the 'Work as user' category.
  3. Click on 'switch.'
  4. You will then have the option to delete or keep contributions you've made to other journals and communities. If you wish to delete those as well, check the boxes. If not, move on to the next step.
  5. Select 'delete' and submit.

At first glance, this may seem like an easy task to take on, but it can get more complicated if you don't have all the details you need to go through this process: your username, email, and password. It gets even more challenging if you don't have access to the old email because you can't send the username or password reset to your email as a reminder.

Finding this information can take weeks or longer, especially if you have to contact support and wait in line for a response. Fortunately, there are better options for deleting old accounts.
