Despite once playing an indestructible cheerleader on Heroes back in the day, the real life Hayden Panettiere is a little more vulnerable. According to the latest gossip news updates,Wladimir Klitschko's Nashville beauty is currently in a treatment center getting help with her severe postpartum depression, 10-months after giving birth to baby daughter, Kaya. For her part, Drew Barrymore, also recently revealed in her new book, Wildflower, that she too suffered from depression following the birth of her daughter, Frankie, last year, but thankfully was not as bad off as Hayden.
After months of quietly fighting postpartum depression behind the scenes, it was announced last week that new Nashville mm, Hayden Panettiere is seeking professional help in getting back to her old self.
The family insider that Life & Style spoke to explained that Hayden recently entered an inpatient psychiatric facility in Malibu so she can get back to living the way she did before baby, Kala, was born:
"She agreed she needed a more intensive treatment so she can be the best mother she can be to her daughter.
"She's getting the help she needs."
Almost as bad as the symptoms, reports Hayden in the latest November 2, issue of OK! Magazine is the social stigmatization that is often also associated with postpartum depression:
"There's a lot of people out there that think it is not real.
"It's something that is completely uncontrollable, And It's really painful, and it's really scary and women need a lot of support."
Iconic Hollywood actress and mother of two, Drew Barrymore, recently admitted in an interview with People magazine that she too had once viewed postpartum depression as sort of a myth, even after giving birth to her first daughter, Olive:
"I didn't have postpartum the first time so I didn't understand it because I was like, 'I feel great!' The second time, I was like, 'Oh, whoa, I see what people talk about now. I understand.
"It's a different type of overwhelming with the second. I really got under the cloud."
