Charli XCX announces Twitter break for mental health reasons
Charli XCX has revealed she's stepping back from Twitter for a while due to mental health reasons.
After revealing that A. G. Cook has the files for a "Beg For You" remix, Charli XCX shared a statement on Twitter revealing that she feels "like I can't do anything right at the moment."
"I've noticed lately that a few people seem quite angry at me - for the choices of songs I've chosen to release, for the way I've decided to roll out my campaign, for the things I need to do to fund what will be the greatest tour I've ever done, for things I say, things I do etc.," Charli XCX wrote. "I've been grappling quite a lot with my mental health the past few months and obviously it makes negativity and criticism harder to handle when I come across it."
Charli XCX added, "In the meantime I'm thinking of just drafting tweets from afar when I feel like saying something and having someone else post them, just for a little while, because I can't handle it here right now."
