Kanye West was hospitalized for exhaustion on Monday, and a source tells PEOPLE he “feels like he’s under spiritual attack.”
Hours after West, 39, canceled the
remaining 21 dates of his Saint Pablo tour, the rapper went to the
hospital following the advice of his doctor, a source says.
“He is exhausted and currently dealing
with sleep deprivation. He went to the hospital at will under the advise
of his physician. He’s fine,” a source previously confirmed to PEOPLE.
In the wake of his wife Kim Kardashian
West being held at gunpoint and robbed of millions of dollars worth of
jewelry on Oct. 3, the musician and clothing designer is “in a very
reflective place right now.”
“He feels like he’s under spiritual
attack, and has been for awhile. It’s not just the big things; it’s
smaller, quieter things, internal things. You might think that it’s
about Kim’s robbery, and while that didn’t help, that’s not what’s going
on here. He’s dealing with a lot more subtle issues,” the source tells
PEOPLE.
“His mother died in November, so this
time of year always brings him a lot of pain. He keeps that pain
internalized, but sometimes will talk about how hard this time of year
is for him. He works through the pain every November,” the source adds.
West’s mother, Donda, who died in November 2007 at the age of 58.
But although the father of two is
physically exhausted from lack of sleep, he is also emotionally and
spiritually tired — and is processing things internally.
“He feels like it’s a trying time for
his spirit, but that can be a good thing. He isn’t one to run away from
these things. He leans in and listens, and comes away a stronger, better
man. But it hurts him; his spirit is vexed. But that’s where growth
comes from,” the source says.
“Sometimes,
darkness creeps in, and Kanye wrestles against it. He talks about that a
lot. It’s exhausting, and it takes everything he’s got. He’s just so
tired now; he’s very low energy and feels like there’s a grieving in his
spirit. It’s very hard to explain, but something has happened recently,
where he’s not the ‘Ye that everyone knows.”
