Heather Locklear Checks into Morose Place

Heather Locklear's checked herself into a psychological treatment facility in Arizona.

The actress' rep tells PEOPLE "Heather has been dealing with anxiety and depression. She requested an in-depth evaluation of her medication and entered into a medical facility for proper diagnosis and treatment."

As TMZ first reported, Heather's doctor called 911 back in March, concerned that she was suicidal.

31. Heather
I have always been a great fan of yours. Depression and Anxiety happens to the best of us. You are not alone. Get better. Don't let that sleaze Denise Richards get to you. You are one classy Lady...don't ever forget that. Your daughter is beautiful too.

32. So her shrink was right for calling 911, and Heather was in danger. Sad, but the covering up that her reps did by trying to blame her doctor is wrong. He or she realized how depressed Heather really was, and probably saved her life.

33. I hope she gets better but she left Richie before Denise started dating him so I don't understand why she would be upset about it. Denise said they weren't great friends especially not a close one. If she left Richie, she shouldn't be upset about who he dated afterwards.

34. #24 -OCD,
VERY, VERY, VERY, WELL SAID!!!!
(I could keep going on with the very's) ha ha.I AM JUST KIDDING ABOUT THAT; those with OCD will know what I'm talking about.

I'm just glad someone is telling the truth.
It doesn't matter how much you have, and where you live. Anxiety, Depression, and OCD, doesn't have anything to do with the price of fuel, groceries, foreclosures, no pay raises, corn prices increasing, wars going on, stock markets, or insurance premiums, etc...............
It can hit anyone. It is an imbalance in your brain and it can drive you, your family, friends, co-workers crazy,
cuz they do not know what to do for you.
The only people who can really help this are psychiatrists, because they specialize in brain disorders, and can prescribe the medication you need. It doesn't just stop there. Your Psychiatrist may have to switch you around on meds, because not all the same meds work on all people.
Did you know that you can be a stressed-out person, and if you do not do anything about it, you can spiral downwards from continually suppressing (sp?) it. The brain is very powerful. When it is full, it has a switch and can start shutting things down/off.

Chronic depression is different from "getting the blues".

35. I think she is just in menopause. My mother was crazy when she was menopausal.

36. Heather is beautiful, millionaire, with a gorgeous child. She has problems? wtf would she do if she had our problems?

37.
Psychiatric problems are not equal employment opportunity conditions.

I know of (I do not know him personally), a man who is Warren Buffet, and Bill Gates rich, that has a daughter with OCD and chronic depression and It has hit his family like a FREIGHT TRAIN.

38. To #24, excellant post. I have battled clinical depression for most of my life and it has been hell. Finally getting on the right anti-depressant has made my life so much better. Maybe this is also why Heather has made such poor choices in men. I was at her wedding reception when she married Tommy Lee and I could not for the life of me understand why she married him. He is horrible in person! Filthy, stinky! And plain ugly. RitchiE Sambora is no gift either. And by the way, Denise Richards did not break up that marriage. She certainly didn't help it but Sambora chose to cheat. They deserve each other. i watched about 10 minutes of Richard's show and it is sick. She is so foul mouthed and I think her father is brain damaged to participate. I hope Ms. Locklear gets the help she needs with her depression as it is no way to live.

39. I adore Heather and hope she gets the help she needs. Richie and Denise hurt her deeply and she has been unable to cope with the fact that roles are not coming her way the way they used to. She is a class act who is respected in Hollywood. Unfortunately, her choice in men (i.e. Tommy Lee, Richie Sambora, Scott Baio) have led to a river of tears! All the best to you Heather! We are pulling for you!

40. Well, I think she should get back with Ritchey. I'm sure their DAUGHTER would benefit, if nothing else. PEOPLE MAKE MISTAKES, I think they should get back together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

41. Heather, I wish you well. If Jack Wagner is still in the picture I hope he will be at your side with your daughter to help you battle this condition. Oh and Denise this is not fodder for that thing you call a show, howeve maybe you could take Heathers lead and get some help as you are truely mental.

42. OCD is right. :P Hopefully she has a big support system in place and she will get the help she needs. I wonder and wish Richie will be there for her and her daughter. Heather has been through hell and it has all been in the media. When I saw her giving hand gestures to the paps one night leaving the club, I knew she was in deep trouble.

43. She is probably entering menopause and losing hormonal balance. Happens to every woman... go to the doc and get bioidentical hormones. Everything will get better after that. It must be harder for women who trade on their looks as a part of their career. Everybody ages, some earlier than others but it always happens. How you deal with it is what counts. Too bad the general public judges by what people look like, not who they are.

44. It's hard to grow old in Hollywood. That's probably not helping her depression.

45. SHE NEEDED TO TAKE CARE OF HERSELF A LONG TIME AGO.... SHE LOOKS AWFUL.......................HOPE ALL GOES WELL FOR HER.....
