Rapper Kid Cudi has checked into rehab for suicidal thoughts

Actor and rapper Kid Cudi has checked himself in a rehab facility for depression and suicidal thoughts. 

The How To Make It In America star posted a heart wrenching message on his public Facebook page earlier this week. 

He told his 10 million fans that he has been battling depression throughout his entire career, but finally reached breaking point. 

"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."

He talks of his battle with depression, and how it has ruled his life for so many years: "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."

Cudi admits that he is nervous about entering rehab, and facing his depression head-on. 

The rapper also reassures his fans that despite the battle he faces, there will be more music from him. 

"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."

We wish Kid Cudi the best of luck through his recovery!
