In her Instagram story on July 6, she posted a statement, which now appears to be her final message before taking her life.
“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 life and I am appreciative. From surviving off video games to traveling the world on an impulse… but most importantly all of the people I’ve met during this run.”
“I’ve made my mistakes, I’ve taken me loses and I endured all of the consequences that were deemed valid. But sometimes it clouds my skies a little larger than it should. Some storms are heavier than others… and that’s okay. We all fight our own battles.”
Concluding her post, she said “It’s a beautiful day today. Go out and enjoy it for me.”

Just heard about @_ohlana ….I am absolutely heart broken to know she has passed away… She flew out to hang with me in Korea a few years back cause I told her she needed a break. It was so much fun when she came. She was beautiful inside and out and I’m so sorry this happened.

Ohana’s death comes only a week after the passing of Byron ‘Reckful’ Bernstein, who took his own life on July 2. A popular GTA streamer, Kenny “Blue622” Tancredi, also died unexpectedly on July 5, the cause of death is unconfirmed.
Heightened scrutiny has now been placed on how content creation, particularly for streamers, and the challenges it presents, often exacerbated by trolls and drama, is taking its toll on these individuals.
