A 30-YEAR-OLD influencer has been found dead just days after sharing a haunting final post online.
Carlos Mauricio Gómez, known online as Komanche, died in his home in Monterrey, Mexico, on Sunday, his manager said.
In a post on Instagram Byron Reyes added: “From the bottom of my heart, I tell you that you will leave a huge void in everyone and we will always come.
“We’ll miss you buddy!”
Despite being known for his comedy content, Carlos had openly spoken about struggling with depression, schizophrenia and anxiety.
The streamer had also admitted three failed attempts at taking his own life, Mexican outlet Infobae reported .
Just six days before his death, Carlos posted a heartbreaking final message on social media.
“The days just don’t get any better,” he wrote on X in a post that has now been viewed almost 10million times.
Carlos, who had close to a million followers on Instagram and 1.7million on Twitch, regularly shared lifestyle content from his travels across the world.
He last updated his Instagram account in August, posting a video lip-syncing and dancing to a popular track.
Police found Carlos’ body after neighbours saw the rental property’s door left open, according to El Pais.
Investigators found no signs of violence and suspect he died by suicide, the reports stated.
No cause of death has been publicly confirmed but Byron hit out at online trolls in his statement.
“Bullying at any scale is not a game,” the manager said.
How to get help
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide
It doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.

He added: “On the internet, we all believe we have the right to be able to point out or criticize others without even knowing them or without knowing how much those words can affect others.
“I hope this sets a precedent for many before criticizing others.”
Carlos had shared his mental health battles in a now-harrowing October 2023 video.
During the clip he said: “I should have sought help and I didn’t.”
In the comments of Carlos’ final post, fans shared tributes to the late internet star.
“We’re going to miss you Komanche,” wrote one.
“Rest in peace brother”, commented another.
