Who would I report to? Generic Bupropion Catherine Zeta-Jones, among the most regal of Hollywood's royalty, recently checked herself into a mental hospital, according to her rep. The actress was suffering from Bipolar II disorder - also known as manic depression - which her rep said was caused by the tension of watching her husband, Michael Douglas, fight cancer. Bipolar II - as opposed to Bipolar I - is marked by greater periods of depression and often leads to suicide. Episodes can be triggered by major life changes. 'After dealing with the stress of the past year, Catherine made the decision to check in to a mental health facility for a brief stay,' her spokesman said in a statement. Zeta-Jones spent about five days in the facility, People magazine reported.
