Overview
- Kehlani said in a new VIBE interview that a formal diagnosis of borderline personality disorder and bipolar disorder led her to start medication and multiple therapies, including somatic healing.
- She described building a “tool belt of awareness” that helps her spot triggers and symptoms early so she can adjust her routine before a crisis.
- The singer asked close friends and collaborators to watch for red flags such as not sleeping, not eating, very fast speech, or sudden bursts of new hobbies, and to call her psychiatrist if they see them.
- She linked a period of extreme paranoia to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, which she said intensified her distress and pushed her to seek help.
- Kehlani first shared her diagnoses in April 2025 and has continued her career since, winning two Grammys for “Folded” in 2026 with a self-titled album planned next.
