I'm instantly reminded of an at least 3 year trauma time when my Ex cheated on me and added more insult to injury.
Emotional injury is real.
I felt a pain as if someone has beaten the crap out of me and it was present all day every day from a few seconds after waking up to falling asleep. I felt as if I was beaten up so bad that if it was physical damage I would've been put in hospital.
That is real emotional injury and should be punishable by law. And if I'd have an educated guess it's also why some men beat up their cheating ex-partners or the third party, commit murder, suicide etc.
And reading some text can make me infuriated but not injure.
I can only be injured by text if I'm already in an emotionally vulnerable state, see the cheating ex example.

While I'm sorry that you had a bad experience, it is a phenomenally bad idea to make failed personal relationships into criminal offenses. This is like some nightmare straight out of 1700s puritanism.

Being bullied or harrassed is a different topic.
