KEY POINTS

Kanye West’s close friends reportedly have rushed to Wyoming to be by his side and help the rapper seek medical treatment.
A source told People that the 43-year-old rapper’s friends, Don "Don C" Crawley and John Monopoly, have rushed to Wyoming to be by his side after the former posted a series of alarming tweets.
"They are very concerned about his mental health and taking action. They are working to get him the help he needs. He's been seen by a doctor. He was assessed, and the assessment on Monday determined that he did not need immediate hospitalization and that he was in a stable mental state at the time," the source told People.
"Those close to him are concerned, and this is everyone’s top priority to make sure that he’s safe and getting the help he needs," the source added.
West’s first-ever presidential rally was held in Charleston, South Carolina, on Sunday. In a series of now-deleted Twitter posts the following day, the rapper posted cryptic messages directed toward his wife, Kim Kardashian, and mother-in-law Kris Jenner. He alleged that they had tried to "lock him up" and also claimed he wanted to divorce his wife.
Amid rumors that West and Kardashian’s marriage was in danger following the episode, the latter took to Instagram on Wednesday to address her husband’s bipolar disorder.
"As many of you know, Kanye has bi-polar disorder. Anyone who has this or has a loved one in their life who does, knows how incredibly complicated and painful it is to understand. I've never spoken publicly about how this has affected us at home because I am very protective of our children and Kanye's right to privacy when it comes to his health. But today, I feel like I should comment on it because of the stigma and misconceptions about mental health," she wrote.
"People who are unaware or far removed from this experience can be judgmental and not understand that the individual themselves have to engage in the process of getting help no matter how hard family and friends try," she added.
