In one of the resurfaced viral videos, Chase has opened up about his mental health issues. He also talked about living with bipolar disorder and the emotional pain that he went through.
What is his situation now?
In September this year, an influencer called LetHallAlli shared videos showing how he lives on the streets of Riverside, California. In the clip, netizens could notice that Chase is dishevelled as he tells passersby that he is a former child actor and is "auditioning for a movie." Within no time, the videos went viral, drawing attention across social media.
Reportedly, a GoFundMe campaign was also launched earlier to help Chase, which raised around $1,200 (approximately 1.6 million KRW), but the fundraiser was later stopped after Chase’s mother contacted the influencer. "What Tyler needs is not money, but medical support. He is unable to manage his medication on his own and often loses his phone within days. Money could actually do more harm than good. He is kind and pure-hearted, but desperately needs treatment," she said.
After the videos went viral, Ned’s Declassified actors Devon Werkheiser, Daniel Curtis Lee, and Lindsey Shaw talked about his situation on their podcast and said they would help their "old friend."
