Chris Brown Diagnosed with Mental Illness

Chris Brown’s angry outbursts may actually be attributed to mental illness. According to reports from TMZ, court documents reveal that Brown has been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder (BiPolar II to be exact), severe insomnia and Post Traumatic Stress disorder.

Yesterday Brown appeared in court for a progress hearing in the Rihanna assault case. The facility where Brown has just completed 90 days of anger management filed documents that confirm Brown voluntarily stayed for an extra 5 days of therapy.

Confirming public suspicion and speculation, an official from the rehab commented that Brown was self-medicating in a harmful way:

Is Monogamy becoming outdated? The Celebrities in Open Relationships

Am I crazy, or are open relationships a thing now? Judging by Hollywood, I’d say yes. Here are some celebrities in open relationships.

T-PAIN
T-Pain went on the record to confirm that he and his wife don’t have an open relationship. They just “sleep with other girls together.” Sounds open to me.

The Things They Say: 160

Karrueche Tran talks about how her love for Chris Brown is undying and explains how people could never understand their relationship from the outside looking in.

The Things They Say: 135

“Okay, Chris, and I mean this with all honesty and with the best of intentions. I’ve been 24-years-old before and felt invincible; that fades over time and with age comes wisdom and you realize that not everyone talking in your ear has your best interest at heart.

You don’t know me from Adam but if I can offer you a bit of advice from one man to another, one black man to another.”

CNN journalist, Don Lemon, offers singer Chris Brown some advice.
