Kanye West says ex Kim Kardashian told him to see a doctor over a misdiagnosed disorder Kanye West revealed his ex-wife Kim Kardashian told the rapper to see a doctor after insisting he was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder.
He went on to reference Rain Man and added: "I've come to find out it's really a case of autism that I have and autism takes you to a Rainman thing where you're like 'Oh man I'm going wear this Trump hat because I like Trump in general and then when people tell you to not do it you just get on that one point.
Kanye said the people around him found it difficult as "this is like a grown man, you can't tell him".
I'm so blessed and so privileged because think about people that have mental issues that are not Kanye West, that can't go and make that [album] and make you feel like it's all good.".
"He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressures of being an artist and a black man, who experienced the personal loss of his mother, and has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is highlighted by his bipolar disorder," she said at the time.
