Maybe Kanye didn't see what he was doing?

Question

I have ADHD and I totally understand that maybe Kanye didn't mean to be mean when interrupting Taylor Swift. Sometimes in stimulating situations I will start talking impulsively and say things that are probably not OK. But at the time where I would say something, the arousing and stimulating environment kind of makes me hyper and impulsive and I am not the best controller of my actions.

It was a big stimulating environment and he probably didn't see how he was being rude. He probably didn't mean to offend anyone. He was just acting dumb and crazy and wasn't aware of the effect he was having on others. this being said, Kanye seemed really hurt about how the media and public reacted to the event. He didn't seem to really understand how rude his actions were. And for Obama to call him a jackass probably sent shock waves through Kanye. For the leader of the country to call you a jackass for acting impulsively during an event is really hard to handle. And I think we are being unfair to Kanye.

He apologized. He didn't seem to be sincere because he probably didn't understand what he did was wrong.

I have dealt with this all my life. Ask anyone else with ADHD and they will have similar situations where they were vilifiedfor their actions.

It seems to me that he has some facet of ADHD

So what do you all think?

Additional Details

And if you are going to answer with a comment bashing Kanye or bashing me or whatever then don't because it is wrong to bash people. We are all people. Including Kanye

at least you guys see him as a human being. climbing out of his seat and doing it? i didn't see that part. i just saw him already on the stage and i figured he was part of the show. but then its different if he actually went to the stage. but still he probably didn't mean it to be as offensive as it was. he probably didn't mean to hurt taylor swift's feelings. most people who hurt others feelings are not totally aware that they are doing it unless they are some sort of lunatic. i can see you saying he is responsible and he knew what he did. but maybe at the same time he didn't see how what he was doing was affecting others.

and totally she didn't deserve it. and he has a duty to her to apologize. but she should not feel hostility against him.

neither should anyone else.

i think you could be completely right. but he needs to learn to control himself, he is a grown man and he can try to medicate himself. taylor swift didn't deserve the embarrassment she deserved the honor. and beyonce is a b*tch for understanding kanye.

Answer 2

I see where you are coming from, but seriously he literally got up from his seat climbed on stage and said what he said. He knew exactly what he was doing, i'm glad he apologized and I hope all is well for him but he knew exactly what he did and he knew it was wrong.
