Tragic influencer Ethan Is Supreme posted a heartbreaking message about being bullied hours before he was found dead after a suspected overdose.
The beauty influencer - real name Ethan Peters - was just 17 at the time of his death, which was first reported on Sunday.
Hours before the tragedy, he'd shared a poignant message on Instagram revealing he'd been bullied as a child.
He added a picture of himself as a youngster next to one of him as a teen, and wrote: "Would just like to thank everyone who bullied me.
"I do this like once every year to see how much I’ve changed and the only thing that hasn’t is the dark circles..."
The sad news was confirmed by Ethan's father Gerald, who told Fox News he found his son dead at home on Sunday morning.
He revealed he'd spoken to Ethan the previous night and called him a "kind soul, who accepted everyone for who they were."
Gerald also told the network he thinks his son died from a drug overdose, but no official ruling on his cause of death has been released.
Fellow influencer Ava Louise also wrote a post about the loss of her friend on her social media page and suggested he'd battled addiction.
In a series of messages on Twitter, Ava wrote: "My best friend in the entire world, my twin flame.....the only person there for me when I had no one.
"I love you Ethan, I am at a loss for words. I wish I knew how bad it was. I know what you’d want me to say to the Internet rn but I’m to heartbroken to say it. Rip."

She added: "Ethan had an addiction and addiction should not be shamed. I’m openly discussing his cause of death to save the next kid.
"He was so bright and so smart. He needed to live. He was more than his demons and you all are to. Please get help. Call 1-800-662-4357.
"Addiction is a disease. I had to pull Ethan aside in recent weeks and have talks with him about his usage. Everyone close to him was scared.
"I just wish I f**king tried harder I f**king wish I yelled at him more I wish I didn’t enable a single pill he popped."
