Addressing his followers, he said:

”I have taken a break from social media for my mental health because I find Instagram and Twitter to be overstimulating, to be overwhelming,”

“I get caught up and I spiral when I read things about me online and ultimately it’s very detrimental to my mental state. So, I decided to take a step back and delete the app.”
