YouTube Siblings Take Break for Mental Health Treatment
YouTube siblings Yipsy and Yipso are taking a break from their channel to seek treatment for depression, panic attacks, and stress-related physical health issues, hoping to inspire others facing similar struggles.
YouTube siblings Yipsy Keerti and Yipso Ariyakanta announced through The Gyps Channel that they are taking a break from their show to receive treatment for both physical and mental health issues. In a tearful video filmed on the way to meet doctors, the pair explained they need to seriously address their wellbeing and want to share their experience to support others facing similar struggles.
Yipsy has been diagnosed with moderate to severe depression after a relapse. She noted that in recent video clips where she seemed emotionally unstable, doctors had just confirmed her depression diagnosis, and she is currently on medication that affects her speech.
Yipso explained that she has been experiencing physical weakness for an extended period due to significant stress accumulated over the past year. She emphasized that recovery is not simply a matter of deciding to heal—underlying lifestyle patterns and stress responses need to be addressed. Recent hormone testing revealed deficiencies in sex-related hormones, likely stemming from prolonged physical and mental strain without proper treatment.
Yipso revealed that her latest symptoms include panic attacks. She described waking from sleep feeling like she was dying, a sensation that emerged nine months after giving birth and continues despite ongoing recovery efforts. Severe fatigue and emotional instability have compounded the issue, with panic attacks now officially diagnosed. She emphasized that those who experience panic attacks understand the overwhelming sensation she cannot fully explain. After seeking psychiatric care and undergoing additional hormone testing, she discovered significant hormonal deficiencies across multiple hormones related to reproductive health.
Yipso acknowledged that while some symptoms come and go, the accumulated stress over the past year—both from physical strain and prolonged mental distress without treatment—has exceeded what her body can handle, now significantly affecting her body's chemical balance.
