Adin Ross explains his recent freefall, says he was "depressed"

Due to his recent behavior and controversial livestreams, Adin Ross has been under criticism lately. YouTuber Patrick CC even made a video, titled "Adin Ross Will Never Change," where he asserted that the streamer is no longer concerned with changing his behavior since he's already financially secure for life.

Speaking about his behavior, Adin explained:

"Let me prove to people that I'm about to be on this new path, new journey, pick up where I left off on, and spreading love and not hate and that's what Kick needs right now, they need one of their faces from Kick to lead by example."

Adin acknowledged that he has been displaying negative energy for the past month or so, and disclosed that he has been dealing with depression every day to the point where it's been difficult for him to get out of bed. Adin stated that his internet persona is often viewed as snobbish and wealthy, but he clarified that this wasn't who he really is:

"I had a void in my heart and I fill that sh*t with a cup (referring to his lean addiction) and it's deeper than it sounds bro, it is. This sh*t is no f**king joke. It really makes you a different person."
