I need your opinion on something...

I would agree with the consensus here. It's not worth it to share that kind of deeply personal information to people who likely either won't care or will actively use it against you

While my reaction would be to tell people why, I know I'm more of an open book and "do you need a hug?" kind of person than you describe yourself as... So I guess I'm saying take my advice with the proverbial grain of salt.

Don't put out anything that someone can use against you. Let them cry about it actions speak louder then words. Once you kick things back in gear they'll be quiet

It's the Internet, you'll get trolls on anything you open up about.

You don't owe anybody an explanation. And telling YouTube hate commenters why you took a break, will just give them more fuel. They exist solely to spread hate, they don't contribute anything else. You don't owe anybody a reason for stepping away. You're incredible and don't deserve the hate. Some people just don't have anything better to do with themselves. 🫂❤️

So my vote is technically "not right now". If it's still raw for you, I think it probably is best to wait to release the info publicly. We all want to believe the best in people, but I've been around long enough to see the internet's anonymity prove that wrong time and again. It's not worth the risk to your peace. If you feel like you have to say something, I feel like your best bet would just be to stick to a very non-detailed statement about suffering a loss you're still getting over, but if even that feels like too much right now, I'd say nada. Once it isn't so raw, you can always provide more info then.

YouTube has a wider reach than both Twitter and Patreon. Knowing you, that you have anxiety over people using personal information to hurt you, I would tell you to keep it between your trusted friends and yourself. People take breaks all the time on YouTube and every other platform. It's none of their business, and you don't owe random people an explanation. PS: It's understandable that a few comments by randoms stick in your head, but your followers will give you grace. YT has a lot of people who post comments as performance art to be edgy or get a reaction. Do not let a few random comments get to you. You've done an incredible body of creative work, and we're all very proud of that, and you.

You're life and your information is private. You don't owe random strangers any explanation. You don't know these people, they have no right to know why you took a break. If they're mad, then they give you free view counts and interaction with comments. Those who know will support you

Honestly I like transparency with important subjects but some things you shouldn't have to talk about with the world like personal relations and trauma
