“Thank you all for signing up as I’ve been quiet here for the last month,” her post began.

Speaking about her brief social media hiatus this month, the mother-of-two said she took a break from her social media amid the onslaught of “New Year, New Me” posts.
“It makes me very anxious because I don’t know what this year has in store for me yet, but I need to make some changes because I know I don’t feel atm.”
“And when I’m usually struggling like this, my OCD becomes even more of a daily battle, too.”
