Kanye West Checks Out of Hospital Back at Home
Kanye West is out of UCLA Medical Center after more than a week of treatment for his mental breakdown.

As we reported ... Kanye suffered what people close to him say was a "nervous breakdown," triggered in large part by the anniversary of his mother's funeral.
Our sources say Kanye is not out of the woods ... he needs ongoing psychological and medical treatment.

Kanye West 'Nervous Breakdown' Pushed Over Edge by Anniversary of Mom's Funeral
Kanye West just snapped a week ago Monday in what we're told was a "nervous breakdown" ... triggered in large part by the anniversary of his mother's death.
Sources very close to Kanye tell TMZ ... he was increasingly becoming a powder keg of emotions in the weeks leading up to his hospitalization at the UCLA Medical Center ... fueled by what we're told was a shocking lack of sleep and the pressures of touring, running his businesses, parenting and providing emotional support to his wife who was suffering her own emotional trauma after the Paris robbery.
But our sources say the trigger for the breakdown was Donda's death back in November 2007. Her funeral was November 20 -- the same day he cancelled his show at the L.A. Forum. The following day -- November 21 -- Kanye cancelled the remainder of the tour and hours later suffered the breakdown.
People close to Kanye tell us he never effectively grieved over his mom's death and has always had a difficult time in November, but this time he reached the breaking point.
Kanye, we're told, has had trouble handling stress over the last few months, and in the week or so before the breakdown he started to unravel.
As we reported ... Kanye became paranoid when he was taken to UCLA ... refusing for a time to even let doctors touch him. He also ranted that people were trying to ruin his marriage.
Kanye was sedated and is being treated by doctors and mental health professionals. Doctors hoped to release him 2 days ago, but that didn't happen and so far ... no new release date.

'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' Production Temporarily Shut Down
"Keeping Up with the Kardashians" came to a screeching halt on October 3rd, when Kim was held up at gunpoint in Paris, and we've learned the cameras will not roll for the rest of the year ... possibly longer.
Sources connected with the production tell us producers have enough footage for the series commitment, but the plan was to film through the holidays, and that won't happen.
We're told Kanye's hospitalization has temporarily shut down production, but Kim has been in such bad shape since the robbery that there was no real hope of shooting anything through December.
Kim, we're told, has been "rethinking everything" ... our sources would not elaborate.
So the show will go on ... but no XMAS cheer, for sure.

Kim Kardashian One Mission ... Help Kanye

Our sources say it has been excruciating for her ... at times Kanye ranting people were trying to destroy their marriage. It's part of the paranoia that has overtaken Kanye.
Kim, we're told, hopes to take Kanye home as early as today, and her singular goal is to help him get better. As one source put it, "She has been an unbelievably devoted spouse. He's a lucky man."

Kanye West Home Remodel Riddled With Conflict
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian went through emotional turmoil during their recent home renovation, with Kim complaining she was footing the gigantic bill herself.
Our sources say during the final taping of Khloe's talk show in April, Kim was grousing that they had sunk $8 million into their Hidden Hills remodel and it was all her money.
We're told the renovation costs swelled to $10 mil. Our sources say the main reason they sunk so much into the $20 million estate ... Kanye couldn't make his mind up. He would order a change and when it was completed he'd take a look and tell contractors to rip it out and do it another way.
We're told the remodel process has been frustrating and a source of tension for both of them, and to this day they have not spent a single night in the house that they bought 2 years ago.

Kanye West Way Worse than Sleep and Water Deprivation
Kanye West is in a bad mental state ... and sources familiar with the situation tell us his hospitalization is far from over.
Our sources say as of Wednesday morning it appeared he would stay at UCLA Medical Center until at least week's end. We're told some members of Kanye's family wanted him home for Thanksgiving and felt it would do him good, but as of yesterday that looked improbable.
TMZ broke the story ... Kanye's doctor told cops he was suffering from a temporary psychosis brought on by sleep deprivation and extreme dehydration, but we're told the problems go much deeper.
A well-connected Kanye source tells us Kanye's psychological problems are significant enough so that his insurance policy -- which covers lost profits and financial obligations for cancelled concerts due to illness -- will almost certainly cover the losses for the 21 concerts he's cancelled.

This video of Kim, Chyna and Rob was shot at a Bev Hills parking structure back on April 26. At the time it seemed weird they'd be grabbing lunch together because Kim and Rob were beefing.
But now we know they'd banded together for a trip to the Kardashians' OB/GYN, Dr. Paul Crane. We broke the story ... Crane delivered little Dream, as well as Kourtney and Kim's kids.
News of Blac Chyna and Rob's pregnancy didn't leak until May 6, so the timing adds up. It means Blac Chyna was about 2 months pregnant at that point, so safe to say the baby brought the family back together.
