Is it okay to post that someone is harassing you on facebook to get them to stop?
So, I hate "drama" type situations. I can't recall a single time when I was going through what people call "drama". But an ex-girlfriend of mine has been harassing me for months through calls, facebook messages, texts, and other forms of social media. I think you might be able to read questions I have asked before to see a little more background. I have tried all kinds of blocking to stop this. She sends me insults and gets other people to send me death threats. She is telling my old friends lies about me and convinces them that they should send me insults and threats too. I don't even know what I did.

The only one that even mildly bothered me was sent by my old best friend saying "I hope you mess up and get blown up in Afghanistan" Because I am planning on training to be EOD soon.

Any time I respond (which is rarely) It is saying things like "stop harassing me or I will have to take this to the next level" (by that I mean the police).

Well, a couple days were very bad to the point that I was getting things like "I'm going to come to your house and all of us are going to kick your ass". I knew she had been lying to people, and when they confront her, she shows them old altered messages between her and I and fakes like I am the one harassing her. To counter this and have a chance to clear my name, I posted a status on facebook with documentation that she has been harassing me and information to show that many things she said were lies. She is blocked from my Facebook, so she did not personally see the status, but we have many mutual friends who most likely told her. She stopped harassing me right after I posted that and has not sent a single word to me, called me, or anything and I have not heard any false rumors either.

I thought I was in the clear and 'scared her off' by publicly exposing what she was doing. Was it okay for me to do this? I'm not trying to destroy this girl or anything, I just want to have some nice days without getting random insults or threats.

(as some background, I think she might be slightly insane because she has done things like threaten her life if I don't stay with her, or faking pregnancies twice, going as far as putting red dye on my bed sheets claiming she had a miscarriage, you get the idea and why I want to be as far away as possible. We have been apart for about 10 months now I think, yet some of the things she messages me are "I think I may be pregnant")

The reason I am bringing this back up is that she has started back up. I am starting to get threats, insults, and I am hearing rumors, now ones claiming gay things I have never done.

Would it be okay for me to post another status on facebook to get her off my back for a while again? It could only be 2 months before I leave for training, and by then I will be on the other side of the country and will buy a new phone.

(I don't use facebook very much and only have about 24 friends, so I am not spreading this personally to thousands of people or anything)

I want to go to the police about it, but I know if take any legal actions, it could delay my EOD training and cause me to fill out lots of paperwork.

Any advice or opinions of how I am dealing with this? I could use any help, but please read what I said so you don't say options like "go to the police" without giving me some help on how that could affect my training.

Thank you for reading my long message. I do not wish to do this, I just need some outside opinions.
I did try a peaceful resolution and talking for a very long time before it got like this. She runs away from any form of conflict. Literally. She would run and leave if I every brought up any of our problems. It makes a lot of sense that she is doing all of this hidden behind a computer.

One time I was harrassing my ex because they were ignoring me. Ten we finally had a heart to heart and I stopped. Help her move on have a conversation to sort things out. People these days, everyone thinks communication is over rated.
