‘Blue Bloods’ star Jennifer Esposito recalls being sent to psych ward amid severe health problems

News.com.au, People, The Independent, Cleveland.com, and Entertainment Weekly report that the former Blue Bloods star was placed in a psychiatric ward during a period marked by profound illness. Esposito describes the experience as excruciating, noting that she was pleading for her sanity while suffering from physical conditions that remained misdiagnosed at the time.

The actor is currently speaking out about the process of reaching her eventual diagnosis and the impact these events had on her well-being.
