Only two? It seems most celebrities are going through something like this near constantly. Or at least they are simulating it since the drama attracts more views, reinforcing the celebrity.

  It's a bit more obvious in some. E.g. kanye.

    Kanye is clearly having a manic episode. It's not narcissistic collapse

      We can’t diagnose from the keyboard, only speculate. So why not having both? Kanye strikes me as a classic narcissist, he likened himself with a messiah and so on. While at the same time I trust the leaked diagnose he actually received as bipolar.

        You're of course correct. And I'm not a mental health professional. But as someone who has known several people diagnosed with NPD and bipolar. Kanye screams bipolar manic episode to me. The difference seems subtle until you've seen both close up.

        > Kanye strikes me as a classic narcissist, he likened himself with a messiah and so on. While at the same time I trust the leaked diagnose he actually received as bipolar. Delusions of grandeur are a common symptom of bipolar mania. His diagnosis explains everything. If he's experiencing a manic episode now, it's hard to draw any conclusions at all about his baseline personality (which may in fact be narcissistic).

        > he likened himself with a messiah I think most narcissists only metaphorically think they're the next coming of christ, and most of them are too self-aware to say it even if they didn't. If someone tells you they're Christ, or Napoleon, think schizophrenia or bipolar or manic-depressive before narcissism.

Unfortunately as long as enablers stand by them narcissists are protected from collapse. People who have or claim to have billions of dollars always seem to find yes-men hoping to profit by association.

  Ain't that the truth. I know one extremely wealthy person (inherited his father's company). Can barely feed himself. Spends his days waxing his collection of luxury automobiles, immersed in superhero fantasy and stalking women. Truly a carcass of a man. But his every passing whim and crisis is the axis of existence for his gibbering swarm of sucker-creatures. He has a truly wonderful support system.
