Apex Legends-turned-Valorant streamer and YouTuber Coby "dizzy" Meadows has once again decided to take a break from streaming, citing mental health issues. One of the very first legends of Apex Legends, the American streamer had seemingly dropped off the face of the earth for six months back in 2020, before suddenly announcing his intention to play Valorant at the beginning of 2021.Appearing to repeat the pattern, Coby had stopped streaming at the end of last month and there had been no activity on his socials for 15 or so days. Instead of leaving his fans in the dark like last time, however, the streamer tweeted out an explanation for his absence today.Valorant streamer dizzy is battling anxiety, hopes to get back after recoverydizzy@dizzyhey all, recently i’ve been dealing w some severe anxiety and have been put on some medications but my body is still getting used to it. i’m hoping to be back to streaming soon. please remember to take care of yourselves PEACE AND LOVE264727hey all, recently i’ve been dealing w some severe anxiety and have been put on some medications but my body is still getting used to it. i’m hoping to be back to streaming soon. please remember to take care of yourselves ❤️ PEACE AND LOVEIt appears that he has been on anxiety treatment for and still requires some time to adjust to the medication.But he seems hopeful to be returning to streaming soon.
