Ellen Degeneres opens up about her health struggles

Ellen DeGeneres recently opened up about her health challenges, revealing diagnoses of Osteoporosis, OCD, and ADHD. After experiencing severe pain, she sought medical advice, leading to a bone density test that confirmed her Osteoporosis, a condition that weakens bones and increases fracture risk. In addition to her physical health issues, DeGeneres discussed her mental health journey, which began after allegations of a toxic workplace surfaced in 2020. Therapy sessions helped her recognize her obsessive-compulsive disorder, characterized by uncontrollable thoughts and repetitive behaviors. She humorously noted her struggles with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, describing how her tendency to obsess over tasks is often interrupted by her inability to maintain focus. Despite these challenges, she expressed a sense of being well-adjusted, attributing her coping mechanisms to her unique experiences with these disorders.
