Kanye West, now known as Ye, has publicly stated that he was misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder and has instead been diagnosed with autism. This revelation came during an appearance on Justin Laboy's podcast where he credited his wife, Bianca Censori, with encouraging him to seek a reevaluation. West explained how this new understanding of autism explains his past behaviors, particularly his outspoken support for Donald Trump. He emphasized that autism is not a mental illness and highlighted the complexities of managing such conditions within relationships and family dynamics.
I went to this doctor because she said, Something about your personality doesn't feel like it's bipolar, I've seen bipolar before. And I've come to find that it's really a case of autism that I have.
Autism takes you to a Rain Man thing, West said. I'ma 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.
