Tragic Details About Scott Disick

Scott Disick’s mental health has always compounded his other issues, but it seems like losing his parents took a toll on the reality star, from which he struggled to recover. After the loss, he continued to misuse substances, and his relationship with Kourtney Kardashian and her family deteriorated. In 2016, while “Keeping Up with the Kardashian” cameras were rolling, Disick threatened to hurt himself while on the phone with Khloé Kardashian — seemingly triggered by his recent split from Kourtney, who was on vacation with the kids at the time, per Radar. “My life is officially over. I just want it over. I just want you to know. I just can’t do this,” he said, while Khloé told Kim Kardashian to call 911. Eventually, a family friend was able to get to Disick and make sure he was safe.

With the support of the Kardashians, Disick began attending therapy and explored various rehabs, but by 2020 and the onset of COVID-19, he was still struggling. “I just can’t handle staying home not working,” he told Kourtney during an episode of “KUWTK.” “I go to therapy every week, but I never have any breakthroughs, and I never feel happy. … Like I just didn’t grieve my parents correctly or give it enough time.” Finally, Scott explained to Kourtney that he felt he needed to enter an inpatient facility to really get to the bottom of his issues, which he did in May of that year.
