Food blogger and social media influencer Daniel Amit has shared with her hundreds of thousands of followers that her struggles with anxiety have returned, just days after expressing hope for improvement. Amit, who has over half a million Instagram followers and is a prominent culinary content creator in Israel, posted on Saturday that severe anxiety symptoms had resurfaced. She described the experience as frustrating, noting the difficulty of feeling better for a day or two only to suffer a setback.

Earlier in the week, Amit had reported waking up without heart palpitations, a significant improvement from her previous state where she described feeling as though her heart was about to burst. She had initially shared her battle with severe anxiety earlier in the month, which led to her temporary disappearance from social media and difficulty functioning, even holding her phone.

Amidst her personal health challenges, Amit has also had to address the impact on her business. She has informed several regular clients and companies that she is suspending her work for one month. This decision has led to the postponement of campaigns planned for November, a typically lucrative period for influencers due to shopping promotions. Reports indicate that some clients have reacted negatively to this announcement.

Amit, who expanded her business in September by opening a store on the Wolt delivery app, has chosen to pause commercial collaborations to focus on her personal well-being. She had previously asked her followers to share stories of recovery from anxiety, stating that such accounts offered her significant strength.
