Kehlani says the year after being diagnosed with bipolar disorder and BPD changed everything: medication, therapy and a new awareness of her own triggers — and now she wants those close to her to know how to help. Read on to discover the full story!

Diagnosis and new routines

The singer told VIBE she found clarity after receiving diagnoses and beginning treatment. Alongside medication she tried therapies such as somatic healing and described gaining what she called a "tool belt of awareness," learning to spot symptoms and adjust her lifestyle accordingly.

Kehlani explained she’s being transparent about signs that she’s struggling — poor sleep, loss of appetite, racing talk, sudden bursts of new hobbies or impulsive changes in appearance — and asks loved ones to check in, intervene and contact her psychiatrist if needed.
