Tom Holland has said that he is taking a break from social media because it is having a negative effect on his mental health.
The Uncharted star, now 26 years old, addressed his 67 million Instagram followers with a video explaining why he had removed social media apps from his phone.
“Hi guys. So I’ve been trying to make this video for about an hour now, and for someone that has spent that last 13, 14 years, however long I’ve been acting… I cannot seem to say what I need to say without ‘um-ing’ and ‘ah-ing’ every five minutes, so I’m gonna try again,” Holland says in the clip.
He added, “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.”
