Nick Cannon Opens Up About Narcissistic Personality Disorder Diagnosis

The entertainer discusses his mental health journey, embracing therapy, and his efforts to better understand and manage the condition.

Nick Cannon, 44, revealed he has been clinically diagnosed with narcissistic personality disorder (NPD) and is actively seeking help and healing.
He first disclosed his diagnosis on his 'Counsel Culture' podcast earlier this month and has since spoken about it publicly, including during a Thanksgiving charity event.
Cannon, who has previously been diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia, described himself as neurodivergent and acknowledged identifying with most NPD markers except for 'lack of empathy' and 'rage.'
The entertainer emphasized the importance of embracing therapy and mental health awareness, aiming to use his journey as an example for others while working on self-improvement.
As a father of 12 children with six different women, Cannon is also focused on being the best parent he can be while navigating his diagnosis and personal growth.
