Rapper YCee has revealed that he has been living with bipolar disorder since 2020. He made the disclosure in a recent interview where he spoke openly about how the diagnosis changed his life and exposed the gaps in Nigeria’s mental health system.
He explained that after receiving treatment in London, he was expected to continue therapy in Lagos, but the shortage of trained mental health professionals made the process difficult.
He said, “I was supposed to continue treatment in Lagos, but that was where I saw how much of a challenge it is to deal with that kind of condition. There was a lack of personnel. As at 2024, there was very little staffing within mental health. Psychiatrists, psychologists and people that are supposed to be servicing those fields.”
