Kanye West admitted to the hospital after mental breakdown

Kanye West is infamous for his outbursts and random rages. There is the famous outburst of West interrupting Taylor Swift in the 2009 MTV VMA’s. Or in the 2015 VMA’s when he ranted on about how he is running for president in 2020. The newest West outburst is him announcing he will cancel the rest of his Saint Pablo Tour. Shortly after this announcement, West was hospitalized due to “sleep deprivation and dehydration.”

A new report claims that West is “profoundly depressed and paranoid.” Right before being taken to the hospital, West was said to be “behaving erratically” at his trainer’s home. When he was initially admitted to the hospital, sources say he would not let the doctors touch him because he believes they are all “out to get him”. Not only is he paranoid about people being out to get him, but he also believes that everyone is out to destroy Kim and his marriage. Insiders say he has been dealing with these issues for a long time, and the stress of all the concerts and Kim’s robbery in Paris have caused this breakdown.

Reports are claiming that the situation with West is so serious that it may be a while before he is released. West was supposed to be released Monday, but doctors say he has been struggling with paranoia and is not in a stable enough condition to be released quite yet. The mental exhaustion from performing at his concerts has clearly taken a toll on Yeezus, but hopefully he will be back to normal soon… Well, as normal as Ye could be.
