Removing yourself from a group text can vary depending on the messaging platform you're using. Here's how you can do it on some common messaging apps:

1. **iPhone (iMessage):**

   - Open the group text message.

   - Tap on the group conversation at the top of the screen.

   - Tap on the "info" icon (it looks like an "i" in a circle).

   - Scroll down and select "Leave this Conversation."

   - Confirm when prompted.

2. **Android (SMS/MMS):**

   - Unfortunately, there's no built-in feature in the default messaging app on Android to leave a group text. However, you can try the following:

     - Open the group text message.

     - Tap and hold on the conversation until a menu appears.

     - Depending on your device and messaging app, you may see an option to "Delete" or "Mute" the conversation. Selecting "Mute" will prevent notifications from the group but won't remove you from it.

3. **WhatsApp:**

   - Open the group chat in WhatsApp.

   - Tap on the group name at the top of the screen.

   - Scroll down and select "Exit Group."

   - Confirm when prompted.

4. **Facebook Messenger:**

   - Open the group chat in Facebook Messenger.

   - Tap on the group name at the top of the screen.

   - Scroll down and select "Leave Group."

   - Confirm when prompted.

5. **Telegram:**

   - Open the group chat in Telegram.

   - Tap on the group name at the top of the screen.

   - Scroll down and select "Leave Group."

   - Confirm when prompted.

If you're unable to leave the group using the above methods, you can also try muting the conversation or asking the group admin to remove you from the group. Alternatively, you can block the group members individually if you no longer wish to receive messages from them.
