Bugha Suffers A Mental Breakdown While Streaming

Kyle “Bugha” Giersdorf is best known for winning the Fortnite World Cup by Solo Competition when he was just only 16 years old. He is the youngest streamer to receive $3 million dollar.

Regardless of the popularity and fame that he receives from fans, he also suffered from a mental breakdown. Almost every popular streamer experiences mental breakdowns due to the pressure and expectations of the fans. Bugha, who had just won the biggest solo prize in the Fortnite World Cup, was especially vulnerable to this pressure.

The breakdown occurred while he was streaming with his co-players and fellow streamers. Many viewers and fans were worried for Bugha after his mental breakdown while playing Fortnite. He went on to say how stressful being a Fortnite Pro is and how much pressure it is on him, especially after winning the World Cup. Some viewers were being toxic in chat which made things even worse. Another thing were the number of trolls that he faced, who constantly trash-talked him. However, in the middle of his ranting, he insisted that he is not depressed and does not need a therapist.
