Maya Dunietz and Shlomi Shaban were among the guests on the album. It was difficult for her to write in her native tongue, she said. She fell into deep depression after the album was released. She had to cancel shows because her health was deteriorating. Ashdot advised her to move back with her parents in order to heal. They decided to not share her feelings with anyone.
