People calling it quits and wanting a break seems to be the new norm of 2020. The year has had a devastating impact on many. Now, Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys has announced that she’ll be taking a month-long break.

Pokimane is best known for his live streams on Twitch and has amassed a great following. She mostly streams Fortnite or League of Legends and has garnered fame for the same. In fact, in 2017 she was named Twitch Streamer of the Year by Shorty Awards. Pokimane is also a Twitch partner and ambassador.

Pokimane takes a break from Twitch and YouTube

She announced the news on her Twitter handle. Pokimane stated that it’s been hard for her to make content, citing a lack of joy and excitement.

“It’s been hard for me to find the same joys and motivation for making content. The things I look forward to the most, like visiting my family, traveling, going to conventions, and meeting some of you aren’t possible right now. This has led to me feeling burnt out for quite some time, and because of that, I’ve been planning to take a month off.”

Although she says she’d want to take the time off to blow off steam, several are of the opinion that her decision comes from various reasons.

The streamer is considering time off as it would do good for her mental health. Several pros, throughout the year, have come to a similar conclusion, having played/streamed without a break for a long time. However, is there more to Pokimane’s story?

The year has been tough on the Twitch streamer. Keemstar called her out on Twitter for lying about her personal life and many even spread around hate comments for some of her actions.

Such rough patches might have led her to take the break. At the end of the day, mental health is a priority. And if you feel off, it is wise to call for a break and reset.

“I want to be happy and excited to make content for you all. And I’m looking forward to getting back into that headspace.”

We wish the streamer a healthy return and a relaxing time off. Hopefully, she is back streaming in no time.
