Kanye West Is Showing the World What Mental Illness Really Looks Like

What we’re witnessing with (Ye) is not just celebrity drama. This is bipolar disorder playing out in front of the entire world. Millions of people struggle with this condition, but most don’t have cameras capturing their every high and low.

Ye does, and whether you love him or hate him, you’re watching a real, painful battle unfold.

Kanye West isn’t just acting out...he’s showing the world what it looks like when bipolar disorder goes untreated and unchecked. This isn’t just "Kanye being Kanye." It’s manic episodes playing out in real time, and whether you support him or not, it’s a reminder of how devastating this condition can be.

It takes a really solid friend or family member to dig through the bullshit and fight to save someone you love. When Ye pushes people away, makes wild statements, or refuses help, that’s when he needs support the most.

This isn’t about making excuses for Ye’s actions. It’s about understanding what mental illness looks like in its rawest, most public form.

If you know someone struggling like this, don’t watch them self destruct alone.

Try and understand...reach out, fight for them, work with them, and be the person who stays. Because sometimes, that’s the only thing that can pull us back
