Part 4/11:
People who see Kanye’s recent conduct as a consequence of manic episodes argue that his impulsivity, erratic public statements, and bizarre business ideas are typical of manic phases associated with bipolar disorder. These episodes often involve impulsivity, grandiosity, and sometimes reckless decisions, all of which could explain some of Kanye’s more extreme moves.
The Skeptics’ Viewpoint
On the other hand, critics suggest that Kanye’s behavior may be deliberate and calculated, especially given his history of provocation and their perception of him as a publicity strategist. Moreover, some argue that if Kanye indeed suffers from bipolar disorder, his persistent denial and consistent decision-making could reflect a complex interplay of mental health and personal choice.
