Someone isn’t feeling to cheery at all..
Bubbly blond “Cheers” star Shelley Long – depressed over the bust-up of her marriage – was rushed to the hospital after taking an overdose of painkillers in an apparent suicide bid.The 55-year-old actress, who played ditzy waitress Diane Chambers on the classic TV sitcom, was taken to UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles after the heartbreaking incident.Long had been extremely depressed in recent months, was barely eating and often spent long periods of time in bed, said friends, speculating that she tried to kill herself. “It is very sad to see this woman, who is only 55, looking like she’s turning 90,” one pal told The Sun newspaper of London.Another friend said, “For 18 months, she’s been getting more and more depressed. It’s like seeing someone falling off a cliff.“She told some of her good friends she felt she had nothing to live for.”
Here’s hoping to a speedy recovery.
