Watching Jeen-Yuhs, as someone who works in mental health, I saw a story play out I've seen time and again. Dude had a serious break with reality after his mother passed away. I don't know enough to tell whether it's schizophrenia, bipolar I, or schizoaffective disorder, but he's almost certainly dealing with one of these and not receiving any treatment for it because his money and status protects him from the consequences that would land the rest of us in a psych hospital involuntarily.

As an average person in the U.S. who feels like they’re also struggling a bit after losing their mother, do you have any recommendations on where someone like me can start to seek support / methods for getting better?

That's hard to answer without knowing your circumstances as the availability of free or subsidized care varies widely

He’s now saying it’s autism btw.
