Popular Twitch streamer Lannie “OhLana” has reportedly died by apparent suicide, according to those close to her.
Ohlana was a Canadian-Vietnamese Twitch streamer who had recently posted increasingly alarming tweets and Instagram posts regarding her emotional state before submitting what appeared to be her final tweet, which read “it’s not anybody’s fault.”
On July 6, she tweeted “depressed people struggle to reach out in fear the ones closest to them will have cops show up and forcefully confine them against their will. So they’re stuck feeling alone with their dark thoughts because they don’t want to be trapped where they just feel worse.”
It is unclear exactly what lead up to Ohlana taking her own life, but her tweets and messages appear to paint a picture of a individual tormented by depression.
In addition to her series of tweets, Ohlana posted what appeared to read as a suicide note on Instagram on July 6 before she passed away.
The Next Chapter
Throughout life you will go through experiences that will continuously mould you into who you are today. I have cried, loved, and shared so many great memories with so many of you who are still or used to be in my life. I thank all of you for letting me. I look back in awe of all the opportunities I have been given in my lifetime and I am appreciative. From surviving off video games to travelling the world on impulse.. but most importantly all of the people I’ve met during this run.
I’ve made my mistakes, I’ve taken my losses, and I endured all of the consequences that were deemed valid. But sometimes it clouds my skies a little longer than it should. Some storms are heavier than others.. and that’s okay. We all fight our own battles.
Thank you for everything. Take care of yourselves. And I say this cheesy quote so often it might annoy peeps… but if you can’t seem to find a kind person, be one. Sometimes all it takes is the courage to know you’re not alone. It’s a beautiful day today. Go out and enjoy it tor me".
