Alix Earle Slammed Online Haters for Her Mental Health Taking a Nosedive

Alix Earlie alleged that online haters are to blame for her deteriorating mental health.
The “Hot Mess” host also alleged that the main reason behind her mental health deteriorating was the negative comments that she receives on nearly every post.
She noted that she had “always been fine with reading” what critics had to say, adding “that’s what you subject yourself to when you post yourself online.”
“But recently, I don’t know. It's felt more negative,” she stated.
“Obviously it’s gonna get to you or make you overthink when you’re constantly reading about what you’re doing, the way you look, who you’re hanging out with, what you’re saying,” she continued.
She also said that she has felt like “every time” she shared a post, haters would criticize her.
“It just turns into something bigger,” she said, before adding, “I’m just trying to share my human experiences."
The media personality also pointed out the “double standard,” saying people could leave the “nastiest things,” but if she were to say similar things about them, she’d be called the “biggest b----- ever.”
Earle also shared that she spent time with friends in Miami to take her mind off things, adding that while she loves her work as a content creator, it “shouldn’t result in hating” herself.
