    “Falling into anxiety and depression is like feeling afraid and tired at the same time. It’s a state of fear of failure and having no desire to be productive. You want friends but you don’t want to hang out with people, you want to be alone but you don’t want to be lonely and at the same time, you feel paralyzed as you experience all sorts of emotions.”

    He continued:

    “As self-love deepens, self-hate decreases.”

    Although it appears to be a harmless post of opening up to his fans about what he felt, his words didn’t sit well with internet users who saw it.

    First, people criticized him for posting the IG stories in an “untimely” manner. This is after the music scene is currently brokenhearted for losing a precious soul reportedly due to extreme choice for not being physically and mentally well.

    • “The timing is a little… If you really wanted to, you could’ve uploaded it after a while.”
    • “I know what you’re trying to say, but why…”
    • “Why is he making this about himself.”

    In addition to it being posted at the wrong time, web users also pointed out that his second story which says, “As self-love deepens, self-hate decreases,” doesn’t make sense and feels like invalidating those people who can’t love themselves completely.

    According to commenters, its message is “tone-deaf” and feels like saying, “If you just love yourself more, you wouldn’t hurt yourself.”

    • “This sounds ignorant and insensitive.”
    • “He wrote it like those d*mn English textbooks (*can’t be understood).”
    • “He sounds stupid.”
