Jennifer Esposito, known for her role on “Blue Bloods,” says she was diagnosed with severe depression and that her health crisis escalated to a psychiatric ward stay. She describes depression as part of a broader medical struggle and says she was sent for mental-health treatment during the period when her physical symptoms were worsening.

Both outlets link her mental-health experience to a later medical diagnosis, with Esposito saying her symptoms were ultimately tied to celiac disease. Fox News adds that she reports celiac illness leading to complications such as liver failure and that she thought about suicide before doctors reached a final diagnosis. The New York Post similarly recounts her account of being sent to a psych ward before receiving a celiac diagnosis, but focuses more on her depression diagnosis.

The reports are based on Esposito’s own statements and describe a sequence she says connects a difficult mental-health period with an eventual clarification of her physical condition.
