The psychologist was criticized for a tweet calling Yumi Nu's Sports Illustrated cover 'not beautiful,' before announcing plans to leave the platform.

Yumi Nu attends the Yumi Nu 2022 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Reveal on May 11, 2022 in New York City. Dr Jordan B Preston takes to social media to comment on Yumi Nu's Sports Illustrated cover.In a series of tweets, Peterson explains that he will be"departing" Twitter once again and will soon write an article explaining further issues he has with the platform.

"I recently stopped accessing Twitter for three weeks as an experiment. I had some of my staff post video links etc. It was a genuine relief. I started to read & write more. I started using it again, a few days ago, and I would say that my life got worse again almost instantly," Peterson wrote. "The endless flood of vicious [insults] is really not something that can be experienced anywhere else. I like to follow the people I know but I think the incentive structure of the platform makes it intrinsically and dangerously insane.

"So I told my staff to change my password, to keep me from temptation, and am departing once again. If I have something to say I'll write an article or make a video. If the issue is not important enough to justify that then perhaps it would be best to just let it go." In another tweet, Peterson says he plans to write an article on the"technical reasons that Twitter is maddening," ending the post with"bye for now."
