The ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ star admitted that she had been battling depression after a series of difficult situations in 2019, including health struggles, as she is known for suffering from Lyme disease.”
After the loss of my mother I really struggled with depression followed by a lyme relapse,” she explained, referring to the symptoms from the disease. “The emotional stress and grief strongly affected my immune system,” Yolanda confessed during her first post on July 31st, after a nine-month hiatus from social media.
She also explained that she felt she needed to stop using her phone, as it became addictive while dealing with her depression, adding that she felt it “started to take so much away from being present” in her personal and professional life. Yolanda now says she is “excited to be back and see what you’ve all been up too.”
