Jevremovic used the medium to send a short important message to people. She advised that everyone should know that mental health issues can cause physical illness.
The time Amanda spent on the streets, the amount of traumatic brain injury she endured, the physical abuse, the physical injuries, and the different times she got violently raped were the reason she passed away.
Amanda had opened up on the popular YouTube series about her time as a sex worker on the streets of Los Angeles and her drug addiction before she became sober.
In her last appearance in the series before she passed away Sunday, May 9, she looked healthy and confident as she talked about her being sober for months and that she was no longer battling cravings.
In April 2021, Amanda appeared hopeful, as she explained in a video shared by "Soft White Underbelly" that she was receiving treatment with the assistance of Jevremovic. She also noted that the recovery process takes time and effort.
