Kim Kardashian West acknowledged that her husband Kanye West has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and said it's 'incredibly complicated and painful' for many to understand. She went on to call him a 'brilliant but complicated' person.

In an Instagram Stories post on Wednesday, Kardashian West acknowledged that West has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and said it's"incredibly complicated and painful" for many to understand."As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder. Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand,' she wrote.

He spoke to David Letterman last year and said that he was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and discussed an involuntary psychiatric hold he underwent in 2016."They have this moment where they put you, they handcuff you, they drug you, they put you on the bed, and they separate you from everyone you know," he said."That's something that I am so happy that I experienced myself so I can start by changing that moment.

And also dangerous if not treated

Then seek help don't just advertise it

Do we want someone who has bipolar to have access to that big red button?

Yet I'm still leaning toward voting for West over Trump or Biden.

Brilliant and complicated, not to be mean, that’s a bit over the top and a stretch their wouldn’t ya say Kim?

Thank God he's running for president.

Mental illness is tough on the patient and tough on the family... I hope they get through this....

Kanye west is a very stupid boy..forget bi polar or not..he’s just plain stupid...And I’m still wondering how this untalented Kardashian’s came to the spotlight.

If he believes abortion is murder, he wasn’t lying when he said he almost killed his daughter. I don’t see that being the thought process of a bipolar mania episode. He may rant instead of communicating (which is annoying), bit that isn’t necessarily part of his condition.

These 2 dumbs make everyone bipolar disorder.

Tell him to stay out of the media then. The second anybody steps into the spotlight they give up the usual rights of privacy.

Brilliant? 😂😂

Great to see positive support.

Compassion is the key. Hoping for the best for him and is family.

Lunatic nut job EstesRC ZacinHtown

Chappelle flew over to make sure Kanye doesn’t do anything to harm himself, Kim stays here in Cali. Awful.

What a creative way of saying he’s a republican supporter. She like all the other democrats are losing it. Scratch that.....lost it.

🤣🤣🤣a brilliant crazy

Kanye is not brilliant and he's not complicated. He's just a simpleton! And she needs to get him help!

Why is fake news, CNN concerned about Kanye’s mental health but not Joe Biden’s.

That might be true.

Who cares what SHE has to say!!

Complicated or not he in his state of mind is not fit for the American presidency neither is Biden

💙 love Kanye!

As a person with psychosis and schizophrenia I can tell I was better before being committed. Now under involuntary treatment of vicious amoral psychiatrists, staff and family for 10 years.. it has totally destroyed me. I am ruined. I can't support or function as a normal person.

Me Myself and Irene 👍

Dammit Kim! Not good for the campaign trail!

I will 😂because I wouldn’t believe either parties, both are dramatists.

He and his pal Trumpo are in the same diagnostic bucket, one may be more full than the other!

whatever you attention whore. Crawl back under your rock and take what's his name with you.

He’s a dumb ass person to need to leave them damn drugs alone

🙄

West 2020 😂

Who cares!

Please go sit down

msm propaganda factory smearing West as mentally ill, while promoting a useless fossil w dementia. WalkAway

Wow kardashians r so manipulative. Another try to get people's sympathies!They went 2 Obama then 2Trump 2 pave their way 2 White House.Trump has set such a low bar that every imbecile in US thinks that he could be president even Kanye donlemon jaketapper andersoncooper

They will do anything for publicity 🙄

Bi polar in Kanye case does it have anything to do with being married to a Kardashian. Seems like every man that marries a Kardashian is driven to mental illness or addictions kanyewest KimKardashian khloekardashian kourtneykardash

She should divorcing him

He sounds perfect for president.

please block me

glad he's your boo and not mine. you're welcome!

This can be due to weed intake🤷‍♂️

50 shades of cray

This is coming from a woman that let a man pee on her she has no self-respect and dignity

Sure. I'll give him the launch codes. LOL!

He’s mentally ill. Why is HE the story, Regardless of what he tweets? Irresponsible (sensational) journalism.

Sick and tired of this family, they might eveb capitalize on this shit and make more money.

Brilliant?

CRYBABIES!!!!

Sorry to hear. But someone needs to ensure this man stays on his meds. The last thing we need right now is a black man with a huge platform spreading misinformation about other influential black folks, both past and present. We have to keep it REAL! BlackLivesMatter

NO! BECAUSE, WHILE WE'RE WAITING FOR HIM TO TAKE HIS MEDICATION, HE'S CONTRIBUTING TO THE COLLAPSE OF THE COUNTRY! HELP YOUR HUSBAND! BAKER ACT HIM!5150 HIM! STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR HIM!

Maybe lock him in the basement.

She already got the bag, theres no pre nut lol

I hope she’s praying for her children as well.

Just because you’re a public figure doesn’t mean you have to make everything public. Exhibit A: this picture of Lamar Odom. There was no good reason to post this, other than to keep the public interested in their show.

Oh for fucks sake

I would have never guessed that Kanye West has some kind of mental disorder...

At CNN you keep losing it and looking shallow by the day, One bad story after another😴😴😴😴😴😴

Boohooooo.

🚫 👎 for president of these United States. Our democracy is at stake in November. This is not the time to make an attempt at releasing the KW reality show.

As a coup!e they have all the qualifications to be in the white house !! You go USA. I'm a bit sad, I put money on Miley Cyrus 4 years ago.

who the fck are these people and why do they keep popping up on my feed?!

Now everyone will definitely vote for him...

Mental illness is very serious and complicated. My ex-husband was bipolar. He decided to divorce me. Any person who stays in a marriage with a bipolar person, really loves them.

Not to be that person but how much money do you think went to their bank account because pretty sure carrying out an allotted role of being a weapon of mass distraction is no entry-level job.

Sorry, I’ll pass...

Excuse me it’s not difficult at all in my day they called that having a bad day and pull yourself together and get over it..then they coined the phrase depression and now it’s bio polar..either way it’s not unique just to him like he’s a rare breed...just saying

Imagine the first lady in the white house saying to her personal doctor about baby Trump

Kim and sister Kylie are responsible for making thousands of young girls insecure about their looks, due to CONSTANTLY flashing and promoting plastic surgery, fillers and all things fake and superficial. And Kim is speaking about understanding mental health? Really?

'Kanye West is Brilliant '

Who gives a shit.. celebs just take a back seat right now we don't care

A brilliant Gemini

He’s suitable for president because he's psychological. America needs a mental patient like him and like Donald Trump.

Have a look at this

He’s a douche bag. And so is she. That’s that.

A bipolar President would still be better than Trump

.FLOTUS see how easy it is to ask for compassion when your loved one has mental illness? cc .POTUS .realDonaldTrump just come on prime time tv and resign. World would be a better place.

Tripolar does exist ?

Buggier than a bum’s blanket. And that’s just *her*. Two major twits.

Nothing I heard him say was brilliant. He hides that part well.

Being Bipolar has nothing to do with that asinine statement he made about Harriett Tubman. Absolutely Nothing!!

neither brilliant, nor complicated...he is sick, he needs help

Loved his rally. He is a bit out there, but that doesn't mean he is wrong.

She was correct about the fact that you can’t control an adult w mental health issues, you can’t control their treatment & in many cases you can’t get information abt what’s going on w them unless they share due to HIPAA. I know this too well. I feel bad for the family.

Y’all really gonna believe her, after he expose her for the shit she did, of course she’ll have to back fire with manipulation and much more

Sorry, but why does he have these episodes right before he drops new music? Does he have some mental health issues? Yes. (millions do), does he need help? Yes. (Who doesn't) Does he use his mental issues as an excuse to act a fool? Yes. So don't b fooled. He's an evil genius.

Yeah... but let's be honest here... a game of Tic-Tac-Toe is complicated to Kim K... so her assessment of Kanye doesn't exactly impress anyone.

Kanye reminds me of Suzanne (CrazyEyes) from Orange Is The New Black🤪👀

The fact that she is with him this long she can’t be all there herself

Imbecility is also diagnosed as bipolar disorder.

Joe Biden has been diagnosed with dementia. Why aren't the liberal propagandists talking about it? Kanye isn't a serious candidate for President, Biden is... quit deflecting.

Be gone thot we all know you’re tryna 51/50 him and take his money

I really do feel for her in this situation. mentalillness is real and it affects people all around us. When a loved one struggles, those closest struggle with them.

Ya so, I knocked up a girl, now I want my million dollars!

Yo Kimmy, he should withdraw from the presidential race.

Translate Kim Kardashian's on her use of words 'brilliant' - bling 'complicated' - 'oh f**k!'

abadaaki 🤔🤔🤔

No one Should Ever Criticize a Brother for trying to Continue Growing. I applaud his Efforts and Believe me I Understand. Folks Should focus on his Great Achievements and his Contributions to the Less Fortunate. I Love you Brother...Take Care

She is going to law school and knows nothing of a court ordered commitment? Of a court.ordered to take his meds? We had to do this with my uncle and my niece. Its unfortunate at the time but is understood when all is calm.

Oky so his presidential candidate announcement was under bipolar distress☻

What happened with the next POTUS😱😱 OMG😂😂

Brillant? You mispelled arrogant brainfart

Kanye crazy! Maybe crazy more than US

Bipolar are you sure? I think is fivepolar or sixpolar 😂

I understand his wife BUT..the FAMILY shouldn't feed into his bull about running for President!!

To all the people saying he can’t run for president BECAUSE he’s bipolar is dumb. That shouldn’t be a reason. At least you knows what’s wrong with his health & can be treated instead of pretending it doesn’t exist!😌

Look who he's married to. Attention seekers

And that's what people can't control a brilliant person.

Kim Kardashian West addresses husband Kanye West's bipolar disorderKim Kardashian West speaks out about Kanye West's bipolar disorder, saying she felt the need to comment 'because of the stigma and misconception about mental health.' Where was the compassion for the kids in cages at the border when Kanye was running around in his maga gear? KimKardashian ? Sure! She felt the need to commit because sometimes people who need help are too crazy to know it. if she wants us to feel any compassion, she needs to rein him in. meds and therapy do wonders for bipolar disorder. if he's not med compliant, check him in to a hospital. Don't enable his disease.
