What happened to Tanner Fox?

Tanner Fox has been missing in action for well over two years now. However, in September 2022, fans saw him opening up about the matter in an episode of The Roman Atwood Podcast. During a conversation related to his disappearance, Tanner said, “Yeah, we’ll talk about it on here. I got like heavily into shrooms, like psychedelics. For probably a year and a half, I was doing it like five times a week.” Further, he added, “I haven’t in like eight or nine months, but yeah, I got into that s*** pretty heavily, and I like lost my mind for a while.”

Roman Atwood then took the chance to ask him, “Did that start before you stopped YouTube, or you stopped Youtube before you found that?” Tanner then explained, “It was kinda like a bleeding part in the middle of it. Like it kind of assisted both I think, YouTube stopping and then that starting.” Tanner further explained his experience with psychedelics, saying it led to depression and a friend then suggested that he look into Psilocybin. This further led to addiction to the drug compound.

Why did Tanner Fox stop uploading videos to YouTube?

While his addiction was not the only reason he stopped YouTube, Tanner claims it “assisted” it.

Tanner’s first video was uploaded to YouTube over 12 years ago, and his latest upload was in November 2022. This was after his appearance on The Roman Atwood Podcast, where he revealed why he disappeared. Further in the podcast, he mentioned that he was rebuilding his team after taking a year off. However, as of now, there is no sign of him fully returning to YouTube.

As he is also inactive on other platforms like TikTok and Instagram, nothing can be said about when he will be back to posting content.
