Subject: Donald Trump, Kanye West, and the diagnosis of Bipolar Disease
Importance: High
Given your interest in Creativity:
Did you see the entire Kanye West soliloquy in the Oval Office with Trump and Jim Brown? I am using that
clip in my Talent & Creativity class when we discuss "Creativity & Psychopathology." In Psychiatry, the formal
terms that apply are "flight of ideas," "pressured speech," "delusions of grandeur,", and "clang associations." A
truly great example of Hypomania. There's an interesting book on hypomania and success in America today.
