Pokimane to take \u2018mental health\u2019 break from streaming and social media YouTube: Pokimane[jwplayer 3rV0GuQ7]Twitch star Imane \u2018Pokimane\u2019 Anys published a message to Twitter on August 5, revealing that she will be taking a month-long break from streaming after quarantine and overwork have burned her out. Anys is one of Twitch\u2019s most popular broadcasters, boasting over five million followers on the platform, as well as finding success on other social media outlets like YouTube and Instagram. However, the streamer has been a subject of contention lately, after angry fans expressed dismay that she was keeping her relationship under wraps \u2014 but that doesn\u2019t seem to be the reason as to why she\u2019s taking a step back from the camera. In a tweet on August 5, Imane explained that she will be taking a month-long break from posting on social media and streaming on Twitch after keeping a consistent schedule over almost 6 years on the platform. The streamer explained that her decision was brought about by burnout, claiming that the quarantine has shut down conventions and ways for her to see her fans, which are \u201cjoys and motivation for making content.\u201d \u201cThis has led to me feeling burnt out for quite some time, and because of that, I\u2019ve been planning to take a month off,\u201d she explained. \u201cI haven\u2019t taken a month off since I graduated from high school over 6 years ago, and I feel long overdue for some time away from my career and online expectations.\u201d \u201cI want to be happy and excited to make content for you all, and I\u2019m looking forward to getting back in that head space,\u201d she continued. \u201cUntil then, I hope you use this message as a reminder to take care of yourselves.\u201d Thus far, Pokimane\u2019s social media and streaming hiatus has been met with approval from fans, and comes just a month after YouTuber JackSepticEye\u2019s own lengthy hiatus from content creation due to similar reasons. For now, it looks like viewers will have to wait a month for new streams from their favorite broadcaster as Pokimane disconnects and takes a much-needed siesta away from the internet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
