There are several steps you can take to protect yourself from online bullies and haters. Firstly, be aware of your surroundings-are the comments coming from a trusted source? Secondly, don't engage with the negative comments-they are rarely constructive and will only serve to exacerbate the situation. Thirdly, you can block or delete people who you feel are being bullies or hateful towards you, or report them to a moderator if their comments violate community rules. Finally and most importantly, remember that what they say is not true-you are awesome just the way you are!

It is unfortunate that you are experiencing negative comments and messages on your social media accounts. To protect yourself from online bullies and haters, you should first recognize that it is their problem and not yours. Do not take it personally or be overly reactive, but rather recognize that they are likely Projectionists – people who project their own problems onto others. 

You should also avoid responding back or engaging with the bully/hater in any way as this can often be used against you. If possible, block them or report the issue to the social media platform so that they can handle the situation accordingly.

Finally, try to maintain a positive perspective on life and remind yourself why you started using social media in the first place — to connect with friends, family, and like-minded people. Stay focused on the things you have control over such as staying true to your values and making wise choices for yourself.
