In January, the young star — who is known for her viral appearance on Dr. Phil that spawned her “Cash Me Outside” catchphrase — announced via a since-deleted Instagram post that she was taking a break from social media for her "mental health."
She went on to reveal she made the decision due to the way she has been treated online.
"I hate to say it but y’all won! Congrats mission complete," Bhabie wrote. "Y’all made the lil 16 year old completely loose [sic] it! Social media has not only made me who I am but also is every reason I can't sleep at night."

"Everything I do will b considered wrong… image [sic] being me for a second — you just get a cute new wig and wanna show it off then the minute you post your mood is instantly killed bc your comment section if [sic] flooded with 'this s— wants to be black so bad' while wearing a straight blonde wig… this s— is really draining."
Bhabie concluded her post by telling her fans to "Have a nice day" and said that when she returns to Instagram she will have her comments turned off.
