TMZ has learned "Designing Women" star Delta Burke checked herself into a psychiatric hospital last week for depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder and "hoarding." 
Burke, 51, has done an interview with TMZ TV, in which she describes how hoarding (being a pack rat) has ruined her life, but she believes she may now be able to conquer it.
Check out the preview. Watch TMZ TV tonight for the interview. Check local listings.

48. How many of you have stacks of useless crap sitting around your house that you can't get rid of because you may need it someday or else it holds a special memory of some inconsequential event such as the first diaper that your kid took a crap in? How many of you have closets packed to the limit? That is a small sign of hoarding and most of us probably suffer from it to a degree. Expand that to rooms that you can't walk through because things are stacked to the ceiling and that is probably what she has. She should have Oprah come in and clean out her house like she did for someone else last year - it took 4 - 6 weeks to do or something like that.
Given the extensive coverage going on these days thanks to sites like these, don't berate someone for beating the paparazzi blogs to the punch by issuing the statement as opposed to being humiliated by reading about as an "EXCLUSIVE" on this site. She controlled what she wanted the press to know. While she is not a major star these days, these sites revel in showing these people in the most unflattering light and laughing at their expense.

49. Maybe the problem IS meds! Doctors are so quick to prescibe stuff. There IS something in the water in Hollywood! Thanks, Pfizer.

50. I fail to see why "hoarding" requires a stay in the looney bin, wouldn't a closet organizer do the trick?

51. Hey #30 - Please learn the difference between THEIR, THERE, and THEY'RE. No matter how smart your comments are, they lose credibility with horrendous spelling.

52. She's been on talk shows in the past talking about her issues (which she has had for ages). The hoarding thing is a trip. I knew someone ages whose mother was a hoarder. My God. Every room in the house was stacked to the ceiling with crap and there was this little narrow path that led from room to room. I get freaky if I have too many little pieces of paper around.

59. Just makes me more glad that I live in a small town in the middle of nowhere. Obviously living in LA or anywhere around that place, being famous or having money is not good for your mental well being. Lock 'em all up, Hollywierd is going to burn in hell anyways.
