Nick Cannon Reveals Mental Health Diagnosis, ‘Needs Help’
Nick Cannon has revealed a new diagnosis that he said explains a lot to him. He also said that, now that he knows what is wrong with him, he needs to get some help. This is not a physical diagnosis but a mental health diagnosis that he said he needs to work on.
Here is what Nick said he was diagnosed with and what he said is next for him in his life.
Nick Cannon Has Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Nick Cannon has revealed that he received a mental health diagnosis and needs to get “help” now that he knows what his problem really is. He said that he was diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder. This means that a person has an unreasonably high sense of self-importance.
“I still don’t understand it all the way, but I kind of always wanted to get tested for it. I did a bunch of tests,” Cannon said. “I’ve been diagnosed with ADHD. Even as a kid it was dyslexia, but just knowing that I’m just a neurodivergent individual, I kind of always knew.”
Nick said that he wants to use this new diagnosis as a way to better himself. He admits that there are “so many labels out there,” but he wants to embrace who he is and start to heal. “I just embrace mental health and therapy in such a strong way,” he said.
Cannon also said he wants to set an example for other people and show that healing is possible.
Nick Cannon Breaks Down His Mental Health
Nick talked about his diagnosis during his own Counsel Culture podcast, in which he explained his struggles with his own mental health. He explained to Dr. Cheyenne Bryant, a doctor of psychology, his diagnosis and said he clicked off almost all “markers” for the disorder.
“I’ve taken all the power away from the term narcissism ’cause I’ve researched it and I understand it,” Nick said. “Call me whatever you want… now if I didn’t know what it was, then I have issue with it.”
Nick Cannon has lived a unique life. He shares 12 children with six different women (Mariah Carey, Brittany Bell, Abby De La Rosa, Alyssa Scott, Bre Tiesi, and LaNisha Cole) and supports all 12 of those children. He also said this keeps him busy during Thanksgiving since he visits multiple homes over the holiday.
“I’m going to be full by the end of the day, but everybody specializes in certain things, you know what I mean? Some people got good sweet potato pie, some people got amazing fried turkey. So I know every house that needs to have the things that I really like,” Nick said.
