@@LuaBloe Thanks for your response. Often people term mental illness as being weak instead of seeing it for what it is; a sickness. When those suffering open up to them, they are quick to tell them that it's all in their head. Like I will willingly decide to wake up in the morning and lie in my bed crying all day? It's not my desire not to be happy but my brain doesn't know how to be. A lot of people are opening up about their struggles but no one seems to be listening. (Avicii's SOS comes to mind). This is the more reason why people continue to suffer from it. Recently I shared my mental struggles with someone and their response was; "I also feel sad, you just have to snap out of it, you have to make yourself happy". Saying this makes me feel like I'm the one doing it to myself. But what they don't know is; my own 'sadness' prevents me from doing all the things I want to do, I want to live but not like this.

I completely agree with Kanye. When someone is having a mental health crisis, a lot of friends/family will make it 100 times worse, thinking they are helping. I’ve struggled with depression in the past, and during really bad times family members would tell me about everything wrong with me, how I need to behave differently, improve, etc. Its no wonder the suicide rates are so high in this country. Our culture teaches us that someone suffering mentally needs to change their behavior, when in fact what would really help is simple comforting. These situations need to be about the person in distress, and helping them. Not telling them all the things they do that put them in that position.
this is soo true, im not even american but, my work sucks, my family sucks, everbody I meet stabbs my in my stomach 3x times and than spit on me. Idgaf about life anymore, its too painfull.

Huge applause for Kanye sharing this! It's not easy to expose yourself in this way. I haven't been the biggest fan of him, but there is so much to celebrities that we don't see or know. This is important for them to speak up bc it helps the rest of us who struggle to reach out & seek the help we need and deserve.
I was just telling someone last week how embarrassed I am to openly talk about my PTSD & depression & crippling anxiety. So whenever I see someone else do it I am always so proud of them. I don't particularly like Kanye, but I love that he was brave enough to share his struggle with us. Especially on TV to millions of people.
It is difficult. However he doesnt seek help. Thats the brave part. To admit you need help and get it . Currently he has made people dismiss people mentally ill... companies dropped him for his things said during his manic state. It gives big companies see how mental illness could be a liability and may use against people.
It makes me so sad to watch this now. When he talks about the way it's similar to people pressing on a person with a sprained ankle, it makes me think of all the press and exploitation of his manic episodes now. I don't mean to excuse any of the hatred he has spewed over the years, but I do wish people would recognize an unmedicated manic episode when they see one. And to recognize that sensationalizing, joking about, and inflating that behavior is drastically irresponsible when it is so publicly known that he struggles with this disorder. Interviewers like Alex Jones, Piers Morgan and Tucker Carlson taking Ye's manic rants as his genuine value system and philosophy, and using it for their own views and political gains without regard to integrity or his mental wellbeing. I wonder who would be here for him after the episode ends and he deflates again, when he becomes medicated again, when they can't capitalize on his mental illness anymore. I wonder if this ended in his su*cide, if people would recognize their role in spiraling a person further into their illness. If they would turn him into a martyr, and say "who could have known he was struggling like this?" as they find a new troubled celebrity to put under the microscope.
I feel the same way and Im wondering why more people arent acknowledging that he is having a mental health crises and instead are condemning him as if he would say those things with his mental health under control.
Millions of people have bipolar and DON'T become nazis. Mania obviously plays a big role in what's been happening to Ye, but his new ideas did not come from nowhere, esp. with the stories revealed dated as early as 2018
@@Yulenka- no he definitely hates Jewish people. He would just use dog whistles and keep it in his head. What’s sad is all the people deifying him. Somehow he’s become some prophet from god with that rhetoric. Which is disturbing.
@@Yulenka- That's incredibly true. His beliefs have never been morally good, per say, but that doesn't mean that people forming around him hoping to gain fame or political traction from his episodes are blameless. The people in his life, in combination with the probable lack of medication and treatment have clearly led him to spiral these past few years. There are a lot of people around him with the motive to enable his behavior. It gets them views. I think that mania has taken what might have been a republican with concern about injustices against black people (not necessarily a good person, but a person who could function and had some amount of moderation). It took that man, and added delusions, grandeur, distorted and exaggerated perceptions of reality, took his beliefs to an nth degree where he is a radicalized neonazi. But we as viewers can denounce his beliefs in a way that doesn't sensationalize him and put him in the spotlight even more, just in the way that these other celebrities and political figures can decide not to. I just think the way the situation is being handled is a little irresponsible, that's all. For instance, Alex Jones tried having him on his show to share about politics, and then decided to completely ignore obvious symptoms of a manic episode. Alex Jones gets the views and the spectacle that he wants, and it doesn't matter to him if he is further radicalizing a man who is not in his right mind. We just need to take into account that that is happening every day in Kanye's life. We need to step back, denounce the beliefs, and leave this man to work out his issues in private.
Bipolar Disorder Poem: "'Behind my smile is a breaking heart. Behind my laugh I'm falling apart. Behind my eyes are tears at night. Behind my body is a soul trying to fight.' " These are warriors fighting everyday. We need to do more as a country to supper them." Finally acknowledged my mental wellness journey yesterday and my goodness... this really hits home for me. To relieve myself of the stigma external pressures have implanted into my pysche, I've been invoking the Hawaiian Ho'opono'pono prayer for my younger self/inner child: ☯ 'I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I Love you.' It's not my fault that I have these seasonal imbalances. And there's actually so much beauty I've been able to discover in the world because of it. I am such a more sensitive and conscious observer of my experience now. I know how deep my emotions can run - deep like the Grand Canyon. And I now know how high I can fly - not even SpaceX rockets can reach my most high. There's a whole color spectrum that goes from the deepest wine purples to the brightest iridescent, golden whites. I am friends with my shadow and I love her dearly. One of my greatest teachers, I love my Bipolar Disorder. No one can nurture and soothe me better than I can. (: I AM a powerful Healer.
Found out that I was bipolar last year and I had a ““ manic episode “I refused to take medicine for it , i denied it, & then I accepted it ... I’m now getting the help I need. I always used to say I’d rather have health problems physically than mental illness. It truly sucks. Stay strong everyone that is going through something mentally. They don’t talk about as much as they should.
Oh my God. I used to be mad at this guy for being the Bipolar Mascot. Now, I feel bad and thank him. I guess no one else can better describe what I feel. We both struggle but have different reactions because we have different gifts and personalities. Kayne West could show up in my room and say this is so jacked up, you poor thing. But, he just told the world. We are broken and need more help. Stop crucifying us all with your collective disapproval and either help us kindly or go away. We need compassion. Not a beating for being broken mentally. This man just said what I experience all the time. The world only thinks in all or nothing thinking. There is a spectrum. We are all different and similar in different ways, but the world loves to push Bipolar people until they break.
I don't necessarily have bipolar disorder but something similar I have is borderline personality disorder so I can definitely relate to what he's saying.
I have been diagnosed with a mental illness and was placed on Social Security Disability. told I would never working normal job. However none of that was ever true. Those things that people look down upon us are our strengths it makes us who we are.
People with bipolar disorder are truly unique. They are very imaginative, abstract and bold in expressing their views and ideas. It is sad that they go through this emotional rollercoaster in their lives. Their blessing in a way is a curse, and I cannot fathom the condition in my mind, it truly must be a challenge. I just want them to know that they have something to offer to the world and they have our deepest appreciation when they do so. Keep on shining you bright stars!
I have it and yea its more of a curse lol. I almost ended up hitting my own mother cuz of this disorder....its also why im frustrated that everyone is hating on him for having bipolar. Its very clear what he's saying online is not actually him and he's just manic but its sad that people are so stupid and ignorant that they think he's actually serious and shame him.
im 38 male. I had my first manic episode July 2018. I was court ordered to a behavior health clinic and had to stay until i started taking 900mg of lithium. Thats all i take.thankfully. I gave in and started taking them. 10 months later I feel very " flat.'' i can get happy for 30 seconds and then i go back my dull feelings. I over think on negitive thoughts....WHYYYYY? im a happy guy with a great life. I hate it. I want to slowly ween off of Lithium. because in late August 2019 this year, I will be meeting lots of family from out of town and i want to feel the Joy I once had. I have accomplished so much. very successful. I Used to be very witty. i still can be but it makes me not want to talk as much. Who has quit Lithium for a long time? a short time? my Doctor said I could, but he recommends i stay on it. what withdraws did you have how long did it take to tapper down to quitting? Also Im new to "manic/mania". I hear some that like it and cant wait till it comes again...... really? i thought each time we have a manic episode, it gets worse and worse each time. yes? no? Who takes Lithium and still has mania? I was somewhat delusional. barely able to control myself. and then it kicked in entirely and i had no control. My Doctor said im 38 and ive coped without meds since so i shouldnt dwell on wondering when my next one will happen because im not prone to them like others who can have them monthly. and its true I think about when i will go mania again. at least once or twice a day. It scares me because i dont want to hurt myself again. I ran threw the desert, I had lots of cactus on me.:( in the moment it didnt hurt.) To all my Bi polar people, I love you and your in my deepest prayers. Isaiah 33:24
.period So I have a long history with mental illness and I never believed that I had bipolar disorder. They put me on lithium, risperidone, Corentin, Atavan, and depakote. I’m no longer on any drugs and have been off them for years now. I changed my diet, and read up on the Icarus Project which helped me learn more. I can talk to you more if you need more details. Anyways I wish you the best lithium ruined my life.
What really sucks is how we, the public, handled this situation. Kanye will go off an rants saying he was Yezzus and would have a comparison to himself with a higher power (feeling like you’re invincible or a higher power is a common symptom of a manic episode) and we just laughed. Even when we were able to see when his mania peaked at an all time high and had to be hospitalized, we were still ignorant towards it. Being bipolar, I’m glad kanye was able to speak about this issue. It makes my mind a bit calmer
I don't follow Kim or her family in the news or social media, but I like seeing that she's a good influence on him, strives to stand by him, hasn't been the same person since that traumatic robbery, and has so many beautiful blessings (children). I pray she continues to do good.
limited access I'm a Christian myself, and it's really uncharitable of you to call the family witches. I agree, their family probably commits a lot of sin, I'm not sure, I don't follow them. But everyone sins a bit too, we all do. Thing is, we need to pray for wayward souls to get into heaven. That should be your concern as a Christian. God bless.
Deneen King Agree, its Sick Care not Healthcare. I am a veteran, its a challenge for me to get care and I have insurance..... its hard to find competent mental health providers.... its all a mess.... If you can remain present you really have to own your own healing.... when you’re suffering mental this is hard...
Oscar Lock that’s a very ignorant comment. Not everyone can afford to treat themselves or have the knowledge or resources to treat themselves. Like if I had a gunshot wound or cancer, I wouldn’t drink some herbal tea, I’d want to go to the doctor
This was going on before his mother’s death, there’s just a false narrative that Kanye drastically changed negatively once his mom died, but that’s not true. Kanye has always been the same, it’s just the way he’s been portrayed that’s changed.
That quote teared me. Couldnt be CLOSER to the truth. Its truly heart wrenching and that moment just want it to go. Just by a switch, especialy at night it arrives. The injustice/unfairness stream in your head, making you left with being hopless and helpless. The 2 evils. Doing what you love does help, holding it is the worst. Having it 10+ years, lean on your family and accept sadness is part of humans. Bless you all!

1:16: it's true. People make others going through this stuff, *feel like they have no support or*** "worse"...!! ... why treat them like they arent** Human when you like to punish them for going through something that they didn't even want?
Absolutely Michelle! It's just like any other illness that needs to be treated, whether it be with medication or whatever path you choose, it's not a choice to have this. I was diagnosed with Cyclothymia over 20 years ago which is a mild bi-polar. My life is so much better now that I'm treated for it. I have to admit though, I miss the mania side. I miss those burst of energy and flying high feelings.
I think my boyfriend of 3 years has this disorder... I’m always getting mad at him for always having these major mood swings, but I KNOW it’s not just something normal.. the thing is, how do I bring this topic up? Without him going ballistic on me?
Create a moment where one mood swing comes up, such as changing their mind for a date, as one example, particularly that will present itself again so NEXT time the decision is his you can react similarly and make it obvious to the both of you that he is regularly being enthusiastic for something then losing interest. Now you have that moment you can use as reference when talking mental health. Try maybe bringing up your own anxieties or sleep issues to put yourself in a more vulnerable position so he feels safe to open up when the topic is presented. Most people are embarrassed of their mental health, or won’t admit to themselves they might have an issue so try not to make it seem like you’re upset or judgmental about it... good luck
I completely and 100% agree I too have bipolar disorder bipolar one to be exact and have had many many manic episodes and even a few hospitalizations so I understand what Kanye's going through pick up stock always been a huge fan stay strong
Thank you Kanye. If we had sprained ankles people would rush to be helpful...opening doors, helping us carry stuff, helping with dinner, housework, the kids etc. But we don't...We have sprained brains and for some reason...people aren't rushing to help us and actually have no empathy or sympathy at all. 😢
He's brave for speaking out about his condition and I respect that. Just know that being bipolar is not correlated with any particular personality. Most bipolar people don't think or act like Kanye West, and lots of non-bipolar could think or act like him.
Messenger Lite Lol according to your conspiracy theory Blogs that have ZERO credibility and base their facts off of misinformation and anecdotes. Stop listening to Alex Jones dude.
Sometimes I feel like those who are talented that happen to be bipolar. Benefit from the mania a bit for the restless motivation needed for their art to be made. Their artwork might be defining for a artist and being medicated can slightly or greatly change that, especially when your body is not used to medication.
lessons forlife he never hid it tho, you must not be a Kanye fan or listened to any of his music if you think this is the first time he talking about it. His last album Ye literarily has it on the cover
Mickie Harris on the life of Pablo he talks about it on FML, specifically about him going crazy when he’s off his Lexipro which is a medication taken by people who suffer from bipolar disorder. Now I’ll wait
personally i am bipolar. and today is a hard day. sometimes i feel like nobody could ever understand how deep my feelings go. to me that is what being bipolar is. feeling everything on a super deep level. instead of getting sad i get depressed. instead of getting happy sometimes i get manic. i fight to survive. i have attempted suicide. but i lived and i am alive today. tomorrow is not garunteed. but i have done a lot of work with my therapist and psychiatrist. i am happy somewhat. and i love myself. but today is a hard day.
Having a heightened connection to the universe is not a disorder, it's actually a privilege. That's called conscious awakening, enlightenment, inspiration, etc... Kanye West doesn't need medication, he needs MEDITATION
Hahah u must be kidding. My friend do a research on what it means to be bipolar and the spectrum of it. We lack lithium in our brain that's a deficiency that needs to be treated with meds not alternatives treatment. You don't tell someone who has heart disease to meditate you tell them to take meds, change their live style and diet. Same is for bipolar.

Im sure theres way more to "heightened connection to the universe when im ramping up," for Kanye. Im bipolar, for me it feels like im a car with jet fuel that achieves unimaginable feats, but only for a short distance, then the engine blows. Ive felt that connectedness to the universe. Whether its a hallucination, or an introduction to a foreign dimension, it doesnt matter. Its not sustainable to feel god powers in a mortal existence
During this interview he is literally in the manic, psychotic state of being Bipolar Type 1. I recognize it because I speak from experience. Maybe he is schizophrenic but if you look at his life he was not always psychotic all the time, so he mostly likely is bipolar as diagnosed.
Kanye needs to realize that people will not treat him differently because he has bipolar disorder. If he wasn’t wealthy he would be homeless or worse. I have bipolar disorder although I suspect my disease is different than his. I am thankful for the support I have. I do not believe others have to change for me. He needs to realize that he needs to take his meds and learn better behavior patterns.
Bipolar illness are not all the same. Manic depression is one under Bipolar which you have to watch for. The symptom's are as though they can be themselves one minute and turned on the ones they love. One minute they can act normal as being calm and collective as though they are very happy and be themselves but within a minute they can harm you because this illness makes them think you or any love ones has come against. Bipolar can be treated to control this illness of the mind. Once they are diagnosed with and what type it can be treated. This is a form of mental illness and it will take awhile for the right type of Bipolar to be treated. It's caused by imbalance of signals of the brain. The diagnosis are confirmed and the right meds are taken to treat it they will always be on these meds. If they skip or stop taking them because they feel great once the levels of the meds drops low the signals of the brain will go back as they were at the beginning they go into state that may harm the ones they love. Just make sure the illness is bipolar and not other mental illness it does take awhile for a diagnosis to make sure what meds will work this is for the person's safety and their love ones.
I rhought bad mood low energy was just me being overworked wirh no recreational activity..now am I to believe that since all I do is work, sleep, eat, stay tired, and mentally taxed that I''m bipolar?
I looked this up to be empowered by Kanye and his disorder and aspire to be as successful as him but now I’m depressed and on the verge of crying. I can’t do this anymore
I 100% agree that you can feel so connected to the universe when ramping up… it’s a beautiful beautiful amazing feeling. But then it gets really ugly if you don’t manage it.
I support Kanye West. WE live in a free society. Free mean Free. Free to have a differ opinion's I support you Kanye and appreciate your honesty and courage .
mechanism is not known well, has to do with map kinase activation largely in response to circadian disturbances. It's important ot note bipolar is episodic, meaning mania lasts for days, it's not up and down within the same day- that is more cluster b personality disorder.
I’d rather see less day time audience talk shows about drama and more of just two people talking in a room about the struggles of being human that would help a lot of people.

To the lovely lady who said we need better support, u touch our hearts. Thank u for such kind compassion...we need more of that
I was just telling someone last week how embarrassed I am to openly talk about my PTSD & depression & crippling anxiety. So whenever I see someone else do it I am always so proud of them. I don't particularly like Kanye, but I love that he was brave enough to share his struggle with us. Especially on TV to millions of people.
Prayers to you honey. Keep fighting the good fight of faith
@@petitefleurici kanye is a musical genius
It is difficult. However he doesnt seek help. Thats the brave part. To admit you need help and get it . Currently he has made people dismiss people mentally ill... companies dropped him for his things said during his manic state. It gives big companies see how mental illness could be a liability and may use against people.
@@halomerric8611 i'ts basically impossible to convince a manic person to seek help. He's so paranoid he thinks his medication is poison.
@@halomerric8611 facts!
It makes me so sad to watch this now. When he talks about the way it's similar to people pressing on a person with a sprained ankle, it makes me think of all the press and exploitation of his manic episodes now. I don't mean to excuse any of the hatred he has spewed over the years, but I do wish people would recognize an unmedicated manic episode when they see one. And to recognize that sensationalizing, joking about, and inflating that behavior is drastically irresponsible when it is so publicly known that he struggles with this disorder. Interviewers like Alex Jones, Piers Morgan and Tucker Carlson taking Ye's manic rants as his genuine value system and philosophy, and using it for their own views and political gains without regard to integrity or his mental wellbeing. I wonder who would be here for him after the episode ends and he deflates again, when he becomes medicated again, when they can't capitalize on his mental illness anymore. I wonder if this ended in his su*cide, if people would recognize their role in spiraling a person further into their illness. If they would turn him into a martyr, and say "who could have known he was struggling like this?" as they find a new troubled celebrity to put under the microscope.
I completely agree
I feel the same way and Im wondering why more people arent acknowledging that he is having a mental health crises and instead are condemning him as if he would say those things with his mental health under control.
Millions of people have bipolar and DON'T become nazis. Mania obviously plays a big role in what's been happening to Ye, but his new ideas did not come from nowhere, esp. with the stories revealed dated as early as 2018
@@Yulenka- no he definitely hates Jewish people. He would just use dog whistles and keep it in his head.
What’s sad is all the people deifying him. Somehow he’s become some prophet from god with that rhetoric. Which is disturbing.
@@Yulenka- That's incredibly true. His beliefs have never been morally good, per say, but that doesn't mean that people forming around him hoping to gain fame or political traction from his episodes are blameless. The people in his life, in combination with the probable lack of medication and treatment have clearly led him to spiral these past few years. There are a lot of people around him with the motive to enable his behavior. It gets them views. I think that mania has taken what might have been a republican with concern about injustices against black people (not necessarily a good person, but a person who could function and had some amount of moderation). It took that man, and added delusions, grandeur, distorted and exaggerated perceptions of reality, took his beliefs to an nth degree where he is a radicalized neonazi. But we as viewers can denounce his beliefs in a way that doesn't sensationalize him and put him in the spotlight even more, just in the way that these other celebrities and political figures can decide not to. I just think the way the situation is being handled is a little irresponsible, that's all. For instance, Alex Jones tried having him on his show to share about politics, and then decided to completely ignore obvious symptoms of a manic episode. Alex Jones gets the views and the spectacle that he wants, and it doesn't matter to him if he is further radicalizing a man who is not in his right mind. We just need to take into account that that is happening every day in Kanye's life. We need to step back, denounce the beliefs, and leave this man to work out his issues in private.
I am bipolar and I KNOW this feeling.
I would always go on spending sprees while manic, ones I spent like 600 dollars on hip hop vinyl records.

Bipolar is a severe disorder. I have it and usually it needs medication to help. Going without medication is very risky.
Bipolar Disorder Poem:
"'Behind my smile is a breaking heart.
Behind my laugh I'm falling apart.
Behind my eyes are tears at night.
Behind my body is a soul trying to fight.'
" These are warriors fighting everyday. We need to do more as a country to supper them."
Finally acknowledged my mental wellness journey yesterday and my goodness... this really hits home for me.
To relieve myself of the stigma external pressures have implanted into my pysche, I've been invoking the Hawaiian Ho'opono'pono prayer for my younger self/inner child:
☯ 'I am sorry. Please forgive me. Thank you. I Love you.'
It's not my fault that I have these seasonal imbalances. And there's actually so much beauty I've been able to discover in the world because of it. I am such a more sensitive and conscious observer of my experience now. I know how deep my emotions can run - deep like the Grand Canyon. And I now know how high I can fly - not even SpaceX rockets can reach my most high. There's a whole color spectrum that goes from the deepest wine purples to the brightest iridescent, golden whites. I am friends with my shadow and I love her dearly. One of my greatest teachers, I love my Bipolar Disorder. No one can nurture and soothe me better than I can. (: I AM a powerful Healer.

Found out that I was bipolar last year and I
had a ““ manic episode “I refused to take medicine for it , i denied it, & then I accepted it ...
I’m now getting the help I need. I always used to say I’d rather have health problems physically than mental illness. It truly sucks. Stay strong everyone that is going through something mentally. They don’t talk about as much as they should.
Hi Lexi are you on medication now ?
The mental health inner struggle is real , we need more support groups and to meet internationally from time to time
Oh my God. I used to be mad at this guy for being the Bipolar Mascot. Now, I feel bad and thank him. I guess no one else can better describe what I feel. We both struggle but have different reactions because we have different gifts and personalities.
Kayne West could show up in my room and say this is so jacked up, you poor thing. But, he just told the world. We are broken and need more help. Stop crucifying us all with your collective disapproval and either help us kindly or go away.
We need compassion. Not a beating for being broken mentally. This man just said what I experience all the time. The world only thinks in all or nothing thinking. There is a spectrum. We are all different and similar in different ways, but the world loves to push Bipolar people until they break.
I don't necessarily have bipolar disorder but something similar I have is borderline personality disorder so I can definitely relate to what he's saying.
I have been diagnosed with a mental illness and was placed on Social Security Disability. told I would never working normal job. However none of that was ever true. Those things that people look down upon us are our strengths it makes us who we are.
He doesn't speak about being bipolar???? He literally made an album about it

@@nunosalgadodeoliveira8803 very ignorant and dumb of you. Speaks to your IQ level.
Just finished watching on Netflix, the interview was the best interview! I wished it was longer.
People with bipolar disorder are truly unique. They are very imaginative, abstract and bold in expressing their views and ideas. It is sad that they go through this emotional rollercoaster in their lives.
Their blessing in a way is a curse, and I cannot fathom the condition in my mind, it truly must be a challenge.
I just want them to know that they have something to offer to the world and they have our deepest appreciation when they do so. Keep on shining you bright stars!
I have it and yea its more of a curse lol. I almost ended up hitting my own mother cuz of this disorder....its also why im frustrated that everyone is hating on him for having bipolar. Its very clear what he's saying online is not actually him and he's just manic but its sad that people are so stupid and ignorant that they think he's actually serious and shame him.
Hi Ram thank you so much for this i needed it so much all love..
@@18karatboy-pe8yc all good my dude, just try to focus on the positive and focus on the good things.
Thank you
I may not necessarily like him , but really brave of him to share this
I have a lot of respect for Kanye for talking about mental illness. It's very honest, and very open. It also takes a lot of courage to discuss this.
He "discusses it" but refuses to take his meds...
The funny thing is that kanye is more woke and more normal then the whole panel put together......
im 38 male. I had my first manic episode July 2018. I was court ordered to a behavior health clinic and had to stay until i started taking 900mg of lithium. Thats all i take.thankfully. I gave in and started taking them. 10 months later I feel very " flat.'' i can get happy for 30 seconds and then i go back my dull feelings. I over think on negitive thoughts....WHYYYYY? im a happy guy with a great life. I hate it. I want to slowly ween off of Lithium. because in late August 2019 this year, I will be meeting lots of family from out of town and i want to feel the Joy I once had. I have accomplished so much. very successful. I Used to be very witty. i still can be but it makes me not want to talk as much. Who has quit Lithium for a long time? a short time? my Doctor said I could, but he recommends i stay on it. what withdraws did you have how long did it take to tapper down to quitting?
Also Im new to "manic/mania". I hear some that like it and cant wait till it comes again...... really? i thought each time we have a manic episode, it gets worse and worse each time. yes? no? Who takes Lithium and still has mania? I was somewhat delusional. barely able to control myself. and then it kicked in entirely and i had no control. My Doctor said im 38 and ive coped without meds since so i shouldnt dwell on wondering when my next one will happen because im not prone to them like others who can have them monthly. and its true I think about when i will go mania again. at least once or twice a day. It scares me because i dont want to hurt myself again. I ran threw the desert, I had lots of cactus on me.:( in the moment it didnt hurt.) To all my Bi polar people, I love you and your in my deepest prayers. Isaiah 33:24
.period So I have a long history with mental illness and I never believed that I had bipolar disorder. They put me on lithium, risperidone, Corentin, Atavan, and depakote. I’m no longer on any drugs and have been off them for years now. I changed my diet, and read up on the Icarus Project which helped me learn more. I can talk to you more if you need more details. Anyways I wish you the best lithium ruined my life.
You were targeted
Get off of that ASAP. & that Depakote. I wish u well.
@@queenmisanthrope Tell me more about the Icarus Project.
How are you right now?
What really sucks is how we, the public, handled this situation. Kanye will go off an rants saying he was Yezzus and would have a comparison to himself with a higher power (feeling like you’re invincible or a higher power is a common symptom of a manic episode) and we just laughed. Even when we were able to see when his mania peaked at an all time high and had to be hospitalized, we were still ignorant towards it. Being bipolar, I’m glad kanye was able to speak about this issue. It makes my mind a bit calmer
I knew he had bipolar.I have plenty of them in my family.Good for you to talk about it.💞💞💞
Listen to Gossip flies it was released in 04 he mentioned his bi polar then.
@Ghost Music Omg yesss.my mother,my youngest brother in 2 aunts.GOD 💞bless you to.
I have bipolar myself and it is easy for me to spot it in others.
I'm bipolar and it sucks

I don't follow Kim or her family in the news or social media, but I like seeing that she's a good influence on him, strives to stand by him, hasn't been the same person since that traumatic robbery, and has so many beautiful blessings (children). I pray she continues to do good.
limited access I'm a Christian myself, and it's really uncharitable of you to call the family witches. I agree, their family probably commits a lot of sin, I'm not sure, I don't follow them. But everyone sins a bit too, we all do. Thing is, we need to pray for wayward souls to get into heaven. That should be your concern as a Christian. God bless.
limited access I never said I don't believe witches exist. We need to care about each other's souls, take care.
Wow! Powerful!👄 Unfortunately, healthcare is a business and doctors are so greedy, people will never be given proper treatment or care.😪
Deneen King that’s why we must hold ourselves accountable in our health and vitality 🌞
Deneen King Agree, its Sick Care not Healthcare. I am a veteran, its a challenge for me to get care and I have insurance..... its hard to find competent mental health providers.... its all a mess.... If you can remain present you really have to own your own healing.... when you’re suffering mental this is hard...
Oscar Lock that’s a very ignorant comment. Not everyone can afford to treat themselves or have the knowledge or resources to treat themselves. Like if I had a gunshot wound or cancer, I wouldn’t drink some herbal tea, I’d want to go to the doctor
Martin Da GOAT Smh! Your reply is very ignorant!
Deneen King what’s ignorant is thinking that everything can be self treated at home which is farrrr from the truth
Not surprised. I feel like this manifested itself when his mother passed.
This was going on before his mother’s death, there’s just a false narrative that Kanye drastically changed negatively once his mom died, but that’s not true. Kanye has always been the same, it’s just the way he’s been portrayed that’s changed.
You dont realise that he talk about the perfection in music (ariana)
This comment is definitely true. He had to be so many people all at once.
Spazus so he was always like this? That’s unfortunate.
That quote teared me. Couldnt be CLOSER to the truth. Its truly heart wrenching and that moment just want it to go. Just by a switch, especialy at night it arrives. The injustice/unfairness stream in your head, making you left with being hopless and helpless. The 2 evils. Doing what you love does help, holding it is the worst. Having it 10+ years, lean on your family and accept sadness is part of humans. Bless you all!
My son has bi polar it’s very difficult for him to cope with well done to Kanye for being honest & what it feels like to experience it .👍👏
I knew it! I'm happy to hear that he's been diagnosed and is getting the help he needs and deserves.
Reportedly he doesn't take his meds...

1:16: it's true. People make others going through this stuff, *feel like they have no support or*** "worse"...!! ... why treat them like they arent** Human when you like to punish them for going through something that they didn't even want?
Absolutely Michelle! It's just like any other illness that needs to be treated, whether it be with medication or whatever path you choose, it's not a choice to have this. I was diagnosed with Cyclothymia over 20 years ago which is a mild bi-polar. My life is so much better now that I'm treated for it. I have to admit though, I miss the mania side. I miss those burst of energy and flying high feelings.
@@chickens1964 mania is good to an extent sometimes I like it other times I hate it
Kanye you are so loved thank you
I think my boyfriend of 3 years has this disorder... I’m always getting mad at him for always having these major mood swings, but I KNOW it’s not just something normal.. the thing is, how do I bring this topic up? Without him going ballistic on me?
Create a moment where one mood swing comes up, such as changing their mind for a date, as one example, particularly that will present itself again so NEXT time the decision is his you can react similarly and make it obvious to the both of you that he is regularly being enthusiastic for something then losing interest. Now you have that moment you can use as reference when talking mental health. Try maybe bringing up your own anxieties or sleep issues to put yourself in a more vulnerable position so he feels safe to open up when the topic is presented. Most people are embarrassed of their mental health, or won’t admit to themselves they might have an issue so try not to make it seem like you’re upset or judgmental about it... good luck
He’s right about being connected to the universe at the high states. I am bipolar and I’m coming off meds to feel this way again
Hes so brave for doing this, it's so hard to talk about my mental illness.
I have BP 2 and it’s honestly so overwhelming at times tbh , the spectrums are just all over the place
Why do they cut him off? The guy is a genius

Wishing Kanye the best. That moment, I'm sure made his mother, smile from above.
I completely and 100% agree I too have bipolar disorder bipolar one to be exact and have had many many manic episodes and even a few hospitalizations so I understand what Kanye's going through pick up stock always been a huge fan stay strong
I have schizophrenia after my mom died I started dealing with hallucinations and seeing things that aren’t there and hearing voices
Thank you Kanye.
If we had sprained ankles people would rush to be helpful...opening doors, helping us carry stuff, helping with dinner, housework, the kids etc.
But we don't...We have sprained brains and for some reason...people aren't rushing to help us and actually have no empathy or sympathy at all.
😢
He's brave for speaking out about his condition and I respect that.
Just know that being bipolar is not correlated with any particular personality. Most bipolar people don't think or act like Kanye West, and lots of non-bipolar could think or act like him.
A lot of them do during mania
Why did he say "well played" at 3:15? Did anyone notice that and the look she gave him?🤔
I think he said well put
the media are all puppets and liars putting on an act....well played, well put...either way they are full of crap
Messenger Lite Lol according to your conspiracy theory Blogs that have ZERO credibility and base their facts off of misinformation and anecdotes. Stop listening to Alex Jones dude.
Sometimes I feel like those who are talented that happen to be bipolar. Benefit from the mania a bit for the restless motivation needed for their art to be made.
Their artwork might be defining for a artist and being medicated can slightly or greatly change that, especially when your body is not used to medication.
Thumbs up for speaking up!suspected he had it!
lessons forlife he never hid it tho, you must not be a Kanye fan or listened to any of his music if you think this is the first time he talking about it. His last album Ye literarily has it on the cover
@@dlilwon ugh..what about the albums before that?I'll wait...

personally i am bipolar. and today is a hard day. sometimes i feel like nobody could ever understand how deep my feelings go. to me that is what being bipolar is. feeling everything on a super deep level. instead of getting sad i get depressed. instead of getting happy sometimes i get manic. i fight to survive. i have attempted suicide. but i lived and i am alive today. tomorrow is not garunteed. but i have done a lot of work with my therapist and psychiatrist. i am happy somewhat. and i love myself. but today is a hard day.

The detail in the girls way of speaking at the end was marvelous
Thank you for being my voice. Thank you. I sure have struggled also, but it's okay, God got me.
Having a heightened connection to the universe is not a disorder, it's actually a privilege. That's called conscious awakening, enlightenment, inspiration, etc... Kanye West doesn't need medication, he needs MEDITATION
Hahah u must be kidding. My friend do a research on what it means to be bipolar and the spectrum of it. We lack lithium in our brain that's a deficiency that needs to be treated with meds not alternatives treatment. You don't tell someone who has heart disease to meditate you tell them to take meds, change their live style and diet. Same is for bipolar.

Im sure theres way more to "heightened connection to the universe when im ramping up," for Kanye.
Im bipolar, for me it feels like im a car with jet fuel that achieves unimaginable feats, but only for a short distance, then the engine blows. Ive felt that connectedness to the universe. Whether its a hallucination, or an introduction to a foreign dimension, it doesnt matter. Its not sustainable to feel god powers in a mortal existence
During this interview he is literally in the manic, psychotic state of being Bipolar Type 1. I recognize it because I speak from experience. Maybe he is schizophrenic but if you look at his life he was not always psychotic all the time, so he mostly likely is bipolar as diagnosed.
Kanye needs to realize that people will not treat him differently because he has bipolar disorder. If he wasn’t wealthy he would be homeless or worse. I have bipolar disorder although I suspect my disease is different than his. I am thankful for the support I have. I do not believe others have to change for me. He needs to realize that he needs to take his meds and learn better behavior patterns.
I have it. I almost feel like I have a kid’s brain especially when manic. I can be very childish and sometimes make no sense. Word salad.
Bipolar illness are not all the same. Manic depression is one under Bipolar which you have to watch for. The symptom's are as though they can be themselves one minute and turned on the ones they love. One minute they can act normal as being calm and collective as though they are very happy and be themselves but within a minute they can harm you because this illness makes them think you or any love ones has come against. Bipolar can be treated to control this illness of the mind. Once they are diagnosed with and what type it can be treated. This is a form of mental illness and it will take awhile for the right type of Bipolar to be treated. It's caused by imbalance of signals of the brain. The diagnosis are confirmed and the right meds are taken to treat it they will always be on these meds. If they skip or stop taking them because they feel great once the levels of the meds drops low the signals of the brain will go back as they were at the beginning they go into state that may harm the ones they love. Just make sure the illness is bipolar and not other mental illness it does take awhile for a diagnosis to make sure what meds will work this is for the person's safety and their love ones.
I have so much respect for Mr. West, he is so woke and very intelligent!! Wow!!! Let this man be!!!!
I rhought bad mood low energy was just me being overworked wirh no recreational activity..now am I to believe that since all I do is work, sleep, eat, stay tired, and mentally taxed that I''m bipolar?
why did they interrupt kanye when he was talking????!!!!!!!!
"Man I hate being bipolar. Its amazing I fkn love it!" Lmao😂 I stole this comment tho lol
I looked this up to be empowered by Kanye and his disorder and aspire to be as successful as him but now I’m depressed and on the verge of crying. I can’t do this anymore
i love him
I guess not... they're Divorced aren't they???
You will be ok god is good. And so very smart. So happy about that.
this used to just be called being an artist. good that hes keeping his health in check.
He's not: he's not taking his meds regularly or at all from what is reported.
Why do we keep pretending like people are above being human? Embracing your humanity is what makes you a genius. I’m bipolar.
I 100% agree that you can feel so connected to the universe when ramping up… it’s a beautiful beautiful amazing feeling. But then it gets really ugly if you don’t manage it.
anyone got the full interview?
Netflix.
Now it makes so much sense why Kanye makes no sense
This interview was so good
I support Kanye West. WE live in a free society. Free mean Free. Free to have a differ opinion's I support you Kanye and appreciate your honesty and courage .
mechanism is not known well, has to do with map kinase activation largely in response to circadian disturbances. It's important ot note bipolar is episodic, meaning mania lasts for days, it's not up and down within the same day- that is more cluster b personality disorder.
I hope I don’t burn my girlfriend out. Please God keep me together.
Kanye gave a metaforic picture that perfectly explains ADHD as an adult!!!!
Watching this rn I didn’t care for Kanye before but him describing his episodes omg I thought I was the only one so much respect for him he’s so woke.
