Source Close to Kanye Says that Family is Worried About his Mental Health and Well-Being
After delivering a 10-minute, mostly incoherent rant in the Oval Office, earlier this month, friends, and family of Kanye West say they are concerned and worried about the well-being of the Grammy Award-winning rapper...
Those close to Kanye West say they are worried about the state of his mental health after the rapper, while giving an impromptu rant from the Oval Office of the White House, announced to the world that he was “off his meds” and that his initial diagnosis of bipolar disorder was actually nothing more than a mistaken case of mere sleep deprivation.
Those close to Kanye have voiced their concerns stating that “they are at the end of their ropes, and that stuff like this [sic] - referring to his impromptu rant in the Oval Office - won’t help.”
Kanye’s inner circle is incredibly worried about the rap star, they are at a loss and don’t know “what to do or how to help him.”
While Kanye claims his bipolar diagnosis is nothing more than misdiagnosed issues which stem from a lack of sleep, those in his inner circle disagree with this ‘new diagnosis’ and have told the rapper that “he needs to get back on his medication, that he’s not doing well,” and “that he’s not making any sense.”
The unnamed source in the People Magazine’s article also stated that Kanye’s family is worried that his recent, incoherent ramblings in the White House - most likely fueled by a manic-episode - are going to leave Kanye feeling “validated,” thus, further enabling himself to abstain from medication and therapy for which they feel as though he desperately needs.
“Now he’s in the Oval Office, and he’s doing the same rant, and that’s going to validate his rants,” shares the source.
Kanye’s Bizarre, Televised, Impromptu Rant in the Oval Office
While visiting the White House earlier this month, Kanye went all in during a 10-minute, nearly incomprehensible, rant that covered a baffling range of topics including a rather far-out suggestion: replacing the Air Force One with what he referred to as the hydrogen-powered "I-Plane 1," which naturally would be designed by the current number one company in the world, Apple.
(To be clear, Apple did not mention the "I-Plane" during their famous 'product launch' last month).
Other topics from the nationally televised rant included Kanye's vehement calls for abolishing the 13th Amendment - the amendment which ended slavery - followed by claims that his IQ was in the "98th percentile IQ test" [sic], and a rather bizarre claim in which the MAGA hat-brandishing rapper attempted to connect prison reform and his so-called, "misdiagnosis."
In short, those who braved the entirety of what is fastly becoming known as "the oval office rant" - so as to distinguish from Kanye's other recent political rants including the MAGA-laden speech that went viral shortly following his last SNL appearance - witnessed a mental illness-fueled manic episode via an un-medicated and at-risk, mentally ill person who, instead of receiving vindicating, nation-wide attention for his so-called "genius" opinions and suggested policies, is in desperate need of receiving some form of clinical help (and, most likely, Bipolar-medication).

Kanye West‘s family is very concerned for the rapper — but doesn’t know what to do or how to help him.
During a meeting with Donald Trump in the Oval Office on Thursday, West — who avidly supports and voted for the president in the 2016 election — claimed during a lengthy, televised discussion that he was “misdiagnosed” with bipolar disorder. (The rapper, 41, also recently revealed that he is “off medication” he had previously been taking to treat the disorder.)
According to a source close to West, people in his inner circle “are telling him that he needs to get back on his medication, that he’s not doing well, that he’s not making any sense.”
“Now he’s in the Oval Office, and he’s doing the same rant, and that’s going to validate his rants,” shares the source.
