Desiigner is seeking assistance following an unusual incident on a plane.
The “Panda” rapper was flying back to the United States from Thailand and Tokyo over the weekend when he allegedly exposed himself and was reprimanded by a flight attendant.
According to TMZ, he became ill while abroad and was prescribed medication, which he believes caused a chemical imbalance.
When his plane touched down in Minneapolis on Monday, he was met by police who questioned him before releasing him.
Desiigner revealed in a statement posted late Tuesday that he has been struggling with mental health issues and has decided to check himself into a facility for treatment.

“For the past few months, I have not been OK, and I have been struggling to come to terms with what is going on,” he wrote. “I had to be admitted to a hospital while performing at a concert overseas because I was not thinking clearly.” They gave me medication, and I had to fly home.”
“I am ashamed of my actions on that plane,” he continued. I returned to the United States and am being treated in a facility.”
He requested his fans’ support while he seeks assistance. “Until further notice, I will cancel all of my shows and obligations.” Guys, please pray for my mental health. Please seek assistance if you are not feeling like yourself.”
Desiigner performed at Rolling Loud Thailand and also in Tokyo during his overseas trip. He released his latest single “PMR” featuring A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie last month.
