Rapper Gucci Mane Diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Shares Mental Health Journey

News summary

Rapper Gucci Mane revealed in his new memoir and recent interviews that he has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. His wife, Keyshia Ka’oir, actively manages his mental health episodes by removing his access to social media and controlling his phone to prevent public incidents. She described how she identifies the onset of episodes by changes in his communication and behavior, such as withdrawal, lack of appetite, and altered texting patterns. Mane shared that during episodes, he experiences psychosis, hears voices, and sometimes gives away personal belongings and money, unaware of his actions. Following a severe episode during the COVID-19 pandemic, he sought professional help, including therapy and medication, to maintain his health for the sake of his family. Both emphasized the importance of support and management to keep his episodes private and under control, highlighting the challenges of living with and addressing serious mental health conditions.
