Tom Holland fans may have noticed that the star has been absent from social media recently.
Yesterday, the Spider-Man star took to Instagram to explain that there is a reason behind his online inactivity.
In a brief video clip, the 26-year-old said he had been taking a break from social media because of his mental health.
"So, I have taken a break from social media for my mental health, because I find Instagram and Twitter to be over stimulating, to be overwhelming, I get caught up and I spiral when I read things about me online and ultimately it's very detrimental to my mental state so I decided to take a step back and delete the app," Holland explained.
He captioned the clip: "Hello and goodbye... I have been taking a break from social media for my mental health."
However, Holland didn't only break his Instagram hiatus to reassure fans. He also wanted to spread the word about the teenage mental health charity Stem 4, which he and his brothers sponsor at The Brothers Trust initiative.
"Stem 4 is a wonderfully innovative education program, it has - its pioneering apps, its clinically advised website [and] its mental health conferences help to contribute towards [...] helping young kids who are suffering," he told his followers.
"There is an awful stigma against mental health and I know that asking for help and seeking help isn't something that we should be ashamed of, but it is something that is much easier said than done. So, hopefully, these apps can be your first step towards being happier and healthier," Holland continued.
The Uncharted star wrapped up his update by urging those who could support Stem4 to do so, and by thanking followers for listening.
"Thank you for listening, I'm going to disappear from Instagram again. And to everyone out there, thanks for your love and support, I love you all and I'll speak to you soon," he said.
