you also have to realize that in general, throughout the whole story, no matter what he did to keep the hunger and insanity at bay, Ken has been gradually losing his mind, going insane for sure ever since his body and mind were going through assimilating rize's ghoul innards.

by the time of his downfall in the sewers he was cocko batshit crazy, having nightmares and hallucinations as he walks to his end.

it didn't help that he also started cannibalizing other ghoul parts which definetely contributed to his growing insanity.
