Demi Moore Goes To Hospital For Substance Abuse

Posted byBy Stan Castle | Published on: CommentsComments (0)

According to reports, Demi Moore was admitted to the hospital on Monday evening suffering from substance abuse.

At 10:45pm PST the ambulance arrived at the actress’ home. After the emergency crew evaluated her condition they decided to bring her to a local hospital.

She has reportedly been moved to a center to seek assistance in treating substance abuse.

“Because of the stresses in her life right now, Demi has chosen to seek professional assistance to treat her exhaustion and improve her overall health. She looks forward to getting well and is grateful for the support of her family and friends, a rep for the actress said.

In an interview earlier this month, Moore mentioned that she struggles mentally with her fluctuating weight.

“I have had a love-hate relationship with my body,” she said. “When I’m at the greatest odds with my body, it’s usually because I feel my body’s betraying me, whether that’s been in the past, struggling with my weight and feeling that I couldn’t eat what I wanted to eat, or that I couldn’t get my body to do what I wanted it to do.”

There may be some sort of connection! First she’s struggling with weight, now she’s being admitted to the hospital for substance abuse?  Let’s hope she gets the treatment she needs to help whatever conditions she’s battling.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
