This makes us sad for him.
Kanye West's breakdown was triggered by his perception that he is under "spiritual attack" among other mental health issues, People reports. The rapper is also struggling to cope with the nine anniversary of his mother Donda's passing.
"He feels like he’s under spiritual attack, and has been for awhile. It’s not just the big things; it’s smaller, quieter things, internal things. You might think that it’s about Kim’s robbery, and while that didn’t help, that’s not what’s going on here. He’s dealing with a lot more subtle issues," a source dished to the mag.
"His mother died in November, so this time of year always brings him a lot of pain. He keeps that pain internalized, but sometimes will talk about how hard this time of year is for him. He works through the pain every November,†the source added.
Apparently, Ye has been battling inner demons for a while. Even so, he views his struggles as an opportunity for growth and reflection.
"He feels like it’s a trying time for his spirit, but that can be a good thing. He isn’t one to run away from these things. He leans in and listens, and comes away a stronger, better man. But it hurts him; his spirit is vexed. But that’s where growth comes from. Sometimes, darkness creeps in, and Kanye wrestles against it. He talks about that a lot. It’s exhausting, and it takes everything he’s got. He’s just so tired now; he’s very low energy and feels like there’s a grieving in his spirit. It’s very hard to explain, but something has happened recently, where he’s not the ‘Ye that everyone knows," the insider revealed.
We're rooting for you Yeezy!
