Britney Spears Checks Into Mental Health Facility.
Variety ^ | 4/3/19 | Variety Staff

Britney Spears has checked into a psychiatric facility after suffering from emotional distress, a source confirms to Variety.

The 37 year-old singer was admitted over a week ago, as first reported by TMZ, and is expected to remain in treatment for a month.

Spears has been troubled over the past year by her father’s health crisis. Jamie Spears recently underwent a second surgery to fix a ruptured colon.

In November, the “…Baby, One More Time” pop star put her Las Vegas residency on hold to look after her dad. She wrote on Instagram: “A couple of months ago, my father was hospitalized and almost died. We’re all so grateful that he came out of it alive, but he still has a long road ahead of him. I had to make the difficult decision to put my full focus and energy on my family at this time.”

Spears’ mental issues date back to 2007 when the pop star infamously shaved her head and attacked the paparazzi with an umbrella. She later checked into the psych ward at UCLA’s Medical Center.

".....It seems that after her short-lived relationship with fellow teen heartthrob, Justin Timberlake, her life began to unravel as she surrounded herself with people who either had a vested interest in her fame and fortune, or only wanted to tag along with the party wagon as long as they could.

When she married Kevin Federline, and had children with him, and then subsequently divorced him, revelations began to surface about her actual drug addictions and other behavioral issues.

Britney Spears has been in and out of rehab time and time again. Promises Rehabilitation Clinic in Malibu is one of the common destinations for celebrity addicts and Britney Spears is no different. However, her tale takes a bizarre twist when it comes to Promises. It was reported from anonymous sources that while Britney was at the rehab facility, she attempted to commit suicide and was going on and on about how she was the anti-Christ. This bizarre behavior highlights the circumstances that some celebrities find themselves in when dealing with drug addiction.

=======================

So they say she is dealing with emotional stress surrounding her father's health issues.

Okay.

Hair does a great job of storing information about the drugs one uses. Shaving it off is a nice way to hide that history. Just saying...

I’ve seen a lot of very anxious and disturbed and even acute schizophrenic women in my life

My ex wife has all jokes aside had a very difficult life due to her mental illness despite her ravishing beauty

Nobody wants to be that kind of sick trust me

My old man dropped for good when I was 14 and I didn’t need to go to psych.

But I’m glad she did if her problems are that bad.

And I’m sure it’s more to do than just the illness situation

Stability is found by trusting in the Bible’s Christ Jesus alone. Nothing more. Nothing less. Nothlng else.

No drugs are never on the receiving end of blame when personality changes occur. It is just a mere coincidence. That’s why there are pharmacies ‘cause drugs are good for you. Take more!

Yes, but you'd have to shave all of it off.

Not just the hair on your head.

If you get my meaning.

Or do I have to spell it out for you?

“Stability is found by trusting in the Bible’s Christ Jesus alone.“

That does not cure schizophrenia any more than it cures cancer.

I caught one episode of a reality show called Celebrity Rehab. I couldn’t for the life of me understand why these people would want this part of their life broadcast live to the world........

She’s known to be genuinely nice, so I hope the best for her. Anybody who allows their kids to be a Nickelodeon kid is setting them up for a lifetime of problems, because they will be abused.

Nail test. The addicts can be totally hairless. Your nails will still show the drugs you used for the past 90 days.
