Relapse into nitrous oxide use reportedly strains marriage and fuels erratic behavior
Kanye West is reportedly going through a challenging period as he battles a relapse into nitrous oxide use, further complicating his personal and professional life. The 47-year-old rapper and fashion icon, known for his controversial persona, returned to Los Angeles earlier this year and allegedly resumed using "laughing gas" after dental work in January.
According to a close friend, this marked a turning point for West, with insiders claiming the substance has intensified his unpredictable behaviour, especially following his recent outbursts on X (formerly Twitter).
The relapse has reportedly caused tension in his marriage with Bianca Censori, particularly after an appearance at the Grammys in early February. Sources also noted that West's behaviour in Los Angeles has become increasingly erratic, with further concerns raised during a trip to Japan.
One insider revealed that Kanye uses nitrous oxide like a "medication," but experiences emotional outbursts when the effects wear off, describing his actions as unfiltered and unpredictable.
With both his personal relationships and career reportedly suffering, West's latest struggles highlight ongoing concerns about his mental health and future stability.
