Kim Kardashian reveals she has 'low brain activity' after brain scan

She suggested it might be because of 'chronic stress'

A recent episode of The Kardashians revealed that Kim Kardashian has 'low brain activity', which she thinks might be a result of Kanye West and her attempts to become a lawyer.

If you're an aficionado of the reality show, then you'll have seen that Kim went in for a brain scan recently where it was discovered she'd had 'a little aneurysm'.

Naturally she found this very upsetting and asked her family: "Why the f**k is this happening?"

On the latest episode of the show she went back for a follow-up scan and it was more bad news for her, with Dr Daniel Amen telling her that part of her brain has 'low activity'.

He explained: "The front part of your brain is less active than it should be.

"With your frontal lobes, as they work now, it would be harder to manage stress and that's not good for you, especially as you're studying and you're getting ready to take the boards."

Kim was understandably not happy at all to hear this and refused to accept the doctor's diagnosis, telling him 'that just can't be' as she said she was 'not accepting' it.

The doctor told her that from the scans she appeared to be 'not terribly stressed, not anxious and not depressed', but had found some 'holes' in her scan.

He did say that stress might be a reason for it, and she mentioned the stress of her divorce from Kanye West and her studying to pass the bar exam.

"I got to get on a plan to really figure this out because I have some s**t to do this summer," she said on the show.

The brain scans were taken before Kim took the California bar, which she recently revealed she had failed and was planning to try again later on.

Her plan to become a lawyer like her father started back in 2019 when she got an apprenticeship at a firm in San Francisco, and in 2021 she revealed that she had passed the 'baby bar' exam on her fourth attempt at it.

Revealing her unsuccessful attempt to pass the bar this year, she posted on social media: "Well... I'm not a lawyer yet, I just play a very well-dressed one on TV.

"Six years into this law journey, and I'm still all in until I pass the bar. No shortcuts, no giving up - just more studying and even more determination."
