Kid Cudi has admitted himself into rehab after coming face to face with suicidal thoughts.
Full story below…
Its been difficult for me to find the words to what Im about to share with you because I feel ashamed. Ashamed to be a leader and hero to so many while admitting I’ve been living a lie. It took me a while to get to this place of commitment, but it is something I have to do for myself, my family, my best friend/daughter and all of you, my fans.
Yesterday I checked myself into rehab for depression and suicidal urges.
I am not at peace. I haven’t been since you’ve known me. If I didn’t come here, I wouldve done something to myself. I simply am a damaged human swimming in a pool of emotions everyday of my life. Theres a ragin violent storm inside of my heart at all times. Idk what peace feels like. Idk how to relax. My anxiety and depression have ruled my life for as long as I can remember and I never leave the house because of it. I cant make new friends because of it. I dont trust anyone because of it and Im tired of being held back in my life. I deserve to have peace. I deserve to be happy and smiling. Why not me? I guess I give so much of myself to others I forgot that I need to show myself some love too. I think I never really knew how. Im scared, im sad, I feel like I let a lot of people down and again, Im sorry. Its time I fix me. Im nervous but ima get through this.
I wont be around to promote much, but the good folks at Republic and my manager Dennis will inform you about upcoming releases. The music videos, album release date etc. The album is still on the way. Promise. I wanted to square away all the business before I got here so I could focus on my recovery.If all goes well ill be out in time for Complexcon and ill be lookin forward to seeing you all there for high fives and hugs.
Love and light to everyone who has love for me and I am sorry if I let anyone down. I really am sorry. Ill be back, stronger, better. Reborn. I feel like shit, I feel so ashamed. Im sorry.
I love you,
Scott Mescudi

Glad he’s getting help. S****** is no joke.
Praying that he makes it through this storm. Hopefully this reaches his fans and if they are traveling through the same storm, they find peace. Matthew 6:33.
In my prayers Kid Cudi. You’re gonna make it through the rain.
I’m mad at the vague title of this post to get hits.
It infers he’s going to be treated for drugs instead of for psychiatric care.
This is insensitive and irresponsible.
Well damn, TGP actually listened and changed the title of the post. Thank you.
Wow at least he’s in the mindset where he knows he needs help and has gone to try process issues that are leaning him in that wrong direction.
Good luck to him.
May he find the inner peace he’s searching for. Get well soon Kudi.
hope you find your peace and center soon, boo! the world needs artists like you around. praying for a speedy recovery
So proud of Kudi. #YouGoodMan? is just a start of a new revolution for black men to come together to fight barriers.
Wow good for him getting his help of what he need
Pray for me too I am in the same boat. Maybe me and Kid Cudi should become friends
