Fans are concerned for YouTube star James Charles after he posted a disturbing tweet, RadarOnline.com has learned.

The 19-year-old model took to the social media platform where he appeared to be in distress following troubles he was facing in his love life.

"I officially give up," Charles announced. "I’m sitting sobbing in my hotel room at 8am when I have to be on set in an hour. This is no one’s fault but my own because my dumb a** continues to go for the same type of insecure cute boys and it gets me hurt every. single. time."

Another fan wrote: "Wow I really didn’t like waking up to this at ALL. You‘re literally my favorite Youtuber and seeing you like this hurts me because I know you don’t deserve any of this."
