Kim Kardashian, Kanye West take a family vacation to save their relationship: Report

Kim Kardashian on Wednesday asked for compassion and empathy for her rapper husband Kanye West`s struggles with bi-polar disorder that have led to a series of rambling public remarks on subjects ranging from politics to his marriage. 
 
Kardashian`s statement on her Instagram stories account was her first public comment on weeks of interviews, public appearances and Twitter comments by West that have raised concern about the Grammy-winning singer`s mental health. 
 
"As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder," she wrote, calling him a "brilliant but complicated person." 
Kardashian did not mention West`s stated plan to run for the White House in the November 2020 election. West held a rally in South Carolina at the weekend under his self-styled Birthday Party banner but has not outlined any coherent political policies. 
 
"Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his intentions," Kardashian wrote.

Kardashian`s comments followed another late-night series of tweets from West, including one where he said he was trying to divorce Kardashian. His tweet was swiftly deleted. The couple married in 2014 and have four children 
Earlier this week West tweeted that his family was trying to get him committed to a psychiatric institution.

West announced he had bi-polar disorder in 2018 and has in the past lamented that he feels medication stifles his creativity. He was hospitalized for psychiatric treatment in 2016.

Bi-polar disorder is a form of mental illness characterized by unusual mood swings between extreme energy and activity and depression, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. It can be treated with a combination of medication and therapy. 
 
Kardashian, a cosmetics businesswoman who first found fame on the TV reality show "Keeping Up With the Kardashians," said she and her family were trying to get help for West, and spoke about the stigma and misunderstandings around mental health.

"Those that understand mental illness or even compulsive behavior know that the family is powerless unless the member is a minor," she said. 
 
She said individuals themselves have to engage in the process of getting help, no matter how hard family and friends try. 
 
"I kindly ask that the media and public give us the compassion and empathy that is needed so that we can get through this," she added.

Kim Kardashian asks for compassion as Kanye West struggles with bi-polar disorder

Kanye West sent out a barrage of tweets on Tuesday and revealed that he’s been trying to divorce his wife Kim Kardashian for several years now. 
 
“I been trying to get divorced since Kim met with Meek at Warldolf(sic)” wrote West on Twitter. The tweet was later deleted. West was referring to the 2018 prison reform summit at a luxury hotel that was attended by Kardashian and rapper Meek Mill. 
 
West added, "Meek is my man and was respectful. That’s my dog. Kim was out of line.” 
 
Hours later Mill took to twitter to refute West’s claim. The rapper wrote, “"S--t is cappp cmon (sic) ....." on Twitter. ‘Cap’ is a slang term for ‘lie.’ 
 
Kardashian is yet to react to West’s allegation. However, late on Wednesday, she did take to Instagram stories to comment on mental illness and her husband’s bipolar disorder. 
 
“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," Kardashian wrote.

She stated that so far she had avoided speaking on the matter to respect her husband’s privacy and protect her children.

Asking media to show empathy, she stated, “He is a brilliant but complicated person who on top of the pressure of being an artist and a black man, who experienced the painful loss of his mother, and has to deal with the pressure and isolation that is heightened by his bi-polar disorder,” she wrote. “Those who are close with Kanye know his heart and understand his words some times do not align with his intentions.” <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/kim-kardashian-asks-for-compassion-as-kanye-west-struggles-with-bi-polar-disorder-315268">Read the full statement here.</a>

Meek Mill addresses Kanye West's tweets about meeting with Kim Kardashian

US rapper and apparent presidential candidate Kanye West has in the past opened up about his struggles with bipolar disorder. 
 
But his recent erratic behavior has again called into question his health and treatment. 
 
He launched his election campaign Sunday with a rambling speech that saw him rant incoherently, reveal he had wanted to abort his daughter, and break down in tears. 
 
What is the mental illness and why do many creative people seem to get it? 
 
- Highs and lows - 
 
Bipolar disorder, formerly known as "manic depression," is characterized by extreme mood swings. 
 
On the one hand, patients experience very high periods known as "mania" when they feel energized, elated and can make reckless decisions. They sometimes also experience delusions.

"They can almost have no inhibitions at all, which means they can spend their life savings in a day," said Andrew Nierenberg, a psychiatry professor at Harvard. 
 
"They can do something that's really bad judgment that they wouldn't ordinarily do, either sexually, or in relationships, or work." 
 
The other "pole" of the illness is depression: ultra-low episodes that can include inability to feel pleasure and suicidal thoughts. 
 
The illness affects up to three percent of the population, which makes it more common than schizophrenia but rarer than depression. 
 
And there can be much variation among patients, said Timothy Sullivan, the chair of psychiatry at Staten Island University Hospital. 
 
Some are more depressive and rarely manic, while others are the other way around. 
 
As a result, diagnoses are typically delayed for years. If a patient has so far only experienced depression, they may be misdiagnosed. 
 
West first revealed his diagnosis on his 2018 album "Ye," where he called it his "superpower." Last year, he revealed it caused him paranoid delusions and described being handcuffed during treatment. 
 
- Risk factors - 
 
Bipolar disorder is known to be "one of the more heritable mental illnesses" said Katherine Burdick, a psychologist at Harvard and the Brigham and Women's Hospital. 
 
If one of your parents had the disorder, your risk is somewhere between 10 to 20 percent. 
 
Scientists are looking for the genes responsible, and trying to understand how these might affect the parts of the brain that deal with emotion. 
 
Another line of research suggests that bipolar disorder could be linked to a flaw in how cells regulate energy, said Nierenberg. 
 
There may also be environmental factors. 
 
For many, but not all patients, "there's a higher rate of childhood trauma, childhood abuse and neglect," said Burdick. 
Substance abuse is also a risk factor, and women sometimes develop it later in life compared to men. 
 
- COVID a trigger? - 
 
The bedrock for treatment is mood stabilizing drugs, and the best of these is still lithium, which has been used since the 1940s. 
 
Anti-inflammatory drugs that reduce an abnormal immune response are being investigated as a treatment, but research is preliminary. 
 
Experts have also started to understand the role that the disruption of "social rhythms" play in bipolar disorder, which has shifted more attention toward therapy. 
 
For instance, the death of a pet can trigger a depression-mania cycle, but when scientists studied such events closely, they realized patients were not driven by grief alone. 
 
"Not only did the person suffer psychologically from that loss, but they used to take the dog out for walks,they got exercise, and it also got them up early in the day so that they had social interactions," said Sullivan. 
 
People with bipolar disorder are sensitive to such disruptions, which means events like the coronavirus pandemic and lockdowns can cause particular harm. 
 
"I have actually had one patient who I haven't seen in more than 10 years, who I don't currently treat, who called me up out of the blue and she's clearly manic," said Sullivan. 
 
Support groups like the Depression Bipolar Support Alliance are credited with raising awareness and destigmatizing the illness. 
 
- Creative link? - 
 
There is thought to be an over-representation of artists, writers and musicians among people with bipolar disorder, a subject explored in the book "Touched with Fire." 
 
Figures from history who may have had the illness include Vincent Van Gogh. 
 
"Creative people are distinguished by particularly unique ways of thinking that involve intense emotional experiences" explained Sullivan. 
 
"It may be that that capacity for that sensitivity involves regulatory systems in the brain that also render you vulnerable to mood disorders." 
 
Some patients with bipolar disorder see their condition as an asset, even if it can alienate friends and family. 
"Researchers have asked a group of patients with different diagnoses, 'If you had a button that you could press tomorrow and make this go away, would you?' said Burdick. 
 
"And the only group of patients that do not opt, more commonly than not, to press the button, are bipolar patients."

While he deleted the screenshots of his message to Kris, Kanye shared a picture with his children and wrote, "West children will never do playboy." He added, "I love my wife. My family must live next to me."

He then wrote that Kim and Kris had “tried to fly in with two doctors” to have him hospitalised. The tweets barely made it for half an hour and were deleted.&nbsp;

Reported in Sun, “Since lockdown they've had daily bust-ups over literally everything. But mainly about the kids, their future, and the different directions they're going in.”&nbsp;

“They've barely had a functioning marriage for the last year and Kim has been finding living with him too difficult. He's very demanding and always obsessed with one of his schemes — she's exhausted. They live totally separate lives now.”

Kanye is now convinced that he needs protection from Kim and her mother Kris Jenner.&nbsp;

Kanye has also been open about his struggle with bipolar disorder and, in 2016, he spent time in hospital after a 'psychiatric emergency' that forced him to cancel 21 concert dates.
