Jax Taylor temporarily withdraws from digital platforms to emphasize personal psychological well-being.
Jax Taylor, famed reality TV personality from shows like Vanderpump Rules and The Valley, has made it clear he's stepping back from social media to put his mental health first. He let the cat out of the bag on his Instagram Stories, telling followers he'll be easing off for a while to focus on his well-being.
Known for his brutally honest podcast, In the Mind of Jax Taylor, Taylor admitted that social media can be a minefield for him. "My noggin's as delicate as a porcelain doll, and certain content can really set me off," he shared. "Somethin' could trip my trigger, and I ain't strong enough to stomach some stuff."
It's no secret that Taylor's struggled with his mental health, including a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and addiction. He's candid about how he'd previously turn to drugs and booze as a way to cope with underlying issues like ego, insecurity, and family troubles. "Things got real dark, man," he confessed on his podcast. "Substances weren't the root of my problems, but I used 'em to cover up all my baggage."
His decision to take a break from social media comes after his stint in a treatment facility, addressing his mental health hurdles and aiming for personal growth. In Bravo's The Valley, he revealed his exhaustion with anger and regret over pushing his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright, away. "I just couldn't see what I was doing," he admitted.
Cartwright's expressed worries over Taylor's progress, expressing concern that he hasn't learned a thing during his time in the facility. Despite this, Taylor's committed to staying the course, using his platform to raise awareness and decrease the stigma surrounding mental health issues. By openly discussing his struggles and recovery, he hopes to inspire others to seek help when they need it.
