Surprised by the picture choice; I totally would've gone with a still from The Sixth Sense.

I thought her new CW show was supposed to be her comeback...come to think of it, this is more work than she's had in the last 5 years. Bad timing on the crazy.

I just have a hard time understanding young third tier actors in Hollywood who freak out like this. They are STILL making more money than 99.99% of the rest of America. Is it really that hard to walk away and buy a gorgeous home somewhere in the Connecticut woods with your earnings and live a normal life?

@katekate is squared: It gives one the freedom to leave a toxic environment or situation.

@Island of Misfit Toys: Not if the toxic environment is in your head. Sounds like generalized panic disorder which is a total horror show and only partially treatable with drugs. Poor girl.

@Tattertotter: I really hope it is just a drug issue so she can get help and overcome it. A mental disorder is another ball of wax completely. (Britney Spears seems to have pulled out of a similar tailspin.) Let's keep our fingers crossed.

Remember a couple of years ago when an ambulance had to be called to a Nicole Richie party because Mischa freaked out on shrooms?

Apparently the "cool kids" ridiculed her for it. "Shroom pussy!!!!"

It's not the Morgan "marrying his granddaughter" Freeman who directed this movie. It's the Morgan J. Freeman who also happens to produce 16 & Pregnant on MTV.

Yeah, I can't remember passwords to anything, but I know the producer/directors of movies and TV shows.

Hmm, you might want to clarify that it was not directed by THAT Morgan Freeman. It was directed by Morgan J. Freeman, a completely different person from the actor. I saw the film, but you can also find that info on IMDB.

Those photos of her a few weeks back at Harrod's looking like a bloated Brigitte Bardot circa 1967 with a puppy dog on her head surely wasn't an indicator of impending self destruction; I just assumed that was the new fashion.

Is this the "bloated" girl I'm supposed to feel sorry for? Because she looks damn good.

Ughh!!! I hate new comments and don't know how to make that a link. Just copy and paste. It's worth it, I promise.

She looks like she's having thyroid issues. Looks like the only drug she's doing is Prednisone.

@Helennellieforsythe I actually think the "bloated" face on an otherwise much thinner body could have something to do with psychiatric medications. Many mood stabilizers, often used in treatment of addicts, result in facial bloating.

Between this, the car accident and engagement to his ex-wife's grandaughter, How much longer before the Six Degrees from Morgan Freeman game?
