In a heartfelt Instagram post on June 4, 2023, Jaden Hossler, professionally known as Jxdn, made a shocking announcement.

He candidly revealed that the past year had been the most challenging time of his life, acknowledging both the highs and lows. 

However, the 22-year-old Tennessee native admitted that the relentless difficulties had finally caught up to him.

He mentioned, “this past year has been by far the hardest time of my life. i am not denying the highs that have come as well, but there have been countless and excruciating lows, and it’s all finally catching up to me.”

Hossler had previously spoken about the importance of strength and self-care, encouraging others to prioritize their mental health. 

Now, the ‘Comatose’ singer realized that it was time to follow his own advice and take care of himself.

In his message, he expressed his intention to take a break from his career to receive the necessary treatment for his mental health. 

“I’m taking time away to seek treatment to finally and hopefully get my mental health to where it needs to be. i need a mental reset. i want to renew my mind,” the singer said.

He emphasized that his ultimate aspiration was to create moments and music that could heal and provide solace in a world characterized by fakeness and insecurity. 

However, Hossler admitted that to achieve that goal, he needed to be in the right state both physically and mentally, which he currently was not.

Despite his absence, he reassured his fans that his new song, ‘Elevated Heartbreak,’ would still be released on June 8, 2023. He expressed gratitude for his team, who would assist in ensuring the song’s release during his time away. 

The ‘Sober’ singer found solace in the fact that this song itself served as a form of therapy, and he hoped that his fans would connect with it, as he had created it with that purpose in mind.

Hossler also wanted to inspire others to seek the help they truly deserved. He mentioned that “fear” had held him back from seeking help for himself, and he wanted to convey the message that one should not wait until it’s “too late” to seek assistance because it never truly is. 

He believed that taking this step would put him in the best possible position to become the person he aspired to be, to feel the way he desired, and to go where he wanted in life.
