Spider-Man<\/u><\/a> actor Tom Holland has opened up about his own mental health and explained his social media absence in a moving Instagram<\/u><\/a> post.<\/p>\n

The actor made a brief return to the site to post a 3-minute video which explained why he has taken a break from social media.<\/p>\n

“I’ve taken a break from social media for my mental health, because I find Instagram and Twitter to be over-stimulating, to be overwhelming,” explained Holland.<\/p>\n

“I get caught up and I spiral when I read things about me online,” he said. “And ultimately it’s very detrimental to my mental state, so I decided to take a step back and delete the app.”<\/p>\n

One of the reasons Holland made the fleeting return to Instagram was to shine a light on a charity, Stem4, which he supports through his organisation The Brothers Trust, and share ways in which the collaboration can help young people affected by mental health issues. He notes that the charity’s work has helped him during his break from social media platforms and hopes that fans can benefit too.<\/p>\n

The Brothers Trust is an organisation set up by Holland’s parents and headed by the star and, according to their website<\/a>, its aim is: “To shine a light on charities where your generous donations can be used to maximum effect.”<\/p>\n
