Lil Nas X has been out of the spotlight for quite some time. He was arrested in August.
Now he is dishing on the details of his life in an Instagram post.
The singer, best-known for Old Town Road, shared he has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder.
Yet, he did not confront his condition for years.
Nas gave two examples of this: he did not want to take medication and feared being judged.
“When I got my bipolar disorder diagnosis, I felt like I had known for the past few years, but I [didn’t] want to admit to it because I didn’t want to have to take medication and have people think differently of me,” he said.
He continued, “I’m already Black and gay, like damn, God. Come on, Black, gay and bipolar? I’m living life on extreme hard mode. On a serious note, I’m doing much better; I’m feeling better.”
“I’m creating freely, and there’s less fear in my heart, and I’m smelling the roses. I’ve been doing music for seven years now.”
“Speaking of music, I want to let you guys know there’s new music on the way. I’m not getting completely to it just yet, but I’m excited to do that.”
