Peller, known for his humorous and engaging content on social media, peeled back the curtain on the personal struggles that lie behind the screen. He explained that assuming the role of caretaker at such a young age has left him emotionally drained and increasingly detached from his family.
“I don’t like to see my family again. I just send them things and make sure they are okay,” he admitted. “My thinking has passed the level of staying with them.”
Despite having an older brother, Peller said he often feels more like the parent in the household—a role he never envisioned stepping into so early in life. The emotional toll has grown so heavy that he has even contemplated leaving the country in search of peace and distance from the expectations placed on him.
“If not that they would start looking for me, I would have just gone to America to stay there and go offline. I’ve been wanting to do it for a while now,” he said.
The young influencer also reflected on how much he has changed over the years, especially in terms of his emotional connections. “Before, if my mum travelled, I would cry and wait for her. But now, I don’t miss anybody. The only person I can miss is Jarvis, my girlfriend. I talk to my family, but I don’t feel the same anymore.”
Peller’s vulnerability has resonated with many fans, shedding light on the silent pressure that often comes with early success, particularly in households where financial support rests heavily on the shoulders of one individual. His story underscores a growing conversation about the mental health challenges faced by young breadwinners, especially in cultures where success often comes with the unspoken obligation to carry others along.
As his honesty continues to spark conversations online, many hope that Peller finds the balance and peace he seeks—both for his sake and for the countless others who see their own struggles reflected in his story.
