Final Farewell
Ellen DeGeneres, 66, has returned to the spotlight with her Netflix special For Your Approval, announcing it marks the end of her Hollywood career. “This is the last time you’re going to see me,” she told fans. The special not only showcases her humor but reveals deeply personal health battles.
Mental Health Revelation
DeGeneres shares she’s been diagnosed with OCD and ADHD. “I may have OCD because a therapist said so… I didn’t know what OCD was,” she jokes. She adds, “I obsess on things, but I don’t have the attention span to stick with it.” Reflecting on her upbringing in a religion that ignored mental illness, she suspects her father had similar struggles.
A Shocking Third Diagnosis
The comedian also revealed she has osteoporosis. After a bone density test, she learned her bones are fragile. “I don’t even know how I’m standing up right now. I’m like a human sandcastle. I could disintegrate in the shower,” she quipped.
Conclusion
Fans have responded with support, wishing her strength and healing as she steps away from the public eye.
