Christina Applegate is speaking out amid reports of an extended hospitalization.

The popular comedic actress, who revealed she has multiple sclerosis in 2021, has often been in the news as her health has worsened. TMZ reported on Thursday that she was recently hospitalized in Los Angeles, and many friends and fans have sent her well wishes.

Christina Applegate expressed her gratitude for the recent support and kind messages she’s received, likely referring to the response to her new memoir, “You With the Sad Eyes.” She shared a photo on social media showing her book and a coffee mug on what looks like a windowsill at home.

In her deeply personal memoir, ‘You With the Sad Eyes,’ Christina Applegate bravely shares her experiences with childhood trauma, sexual abuse, and her battle with multiple sclerosis.

I’m always dealing with health problems, but I’m resilient and improving daily. I’m prioritizing my health right now and will share more updates when I’m ready.

Many of Christina Applegate’s colleagues shared messages of support online. Actor Cheyenne Jackson wrote a heartfelt comment saying he and fans alike deeply admire and support her, and will always be there for her.

“Days of Our Lives” actor Greg Rikaart shared a similar feeling, saying he couldn’t imagine anyone more deserving of support and encouragement.

Autoimmune diseases can affect just about every part of the body — and tens of millions of people.

A representative for Katey Sagal previously didn’t address reports about her hospitalization, telling Entertainment Weekly that Sagal has openly discussed her complex medical history in her memoir and on her podcast, ‘MeSsy’.

In March, Applegate published her memoir, “You With the Sad Eyes,” where she openly shared her life story—from a difficult upbringing to her long career in acting and the health challenges she’s faced.

Look, I’ll be honest, writing this book wasn’t about finding closure for me – let’s just be real about that. It was more like I had to get everything off my chest, just needed to unload it all somewhere. It feels a little strange, but it’s almost like all of you reading it are now hearing me out, like you’re my audience and, well, maybe even my therapists!

The actress, known for “Dead to Me,” described her life as a cycle of difficult times followed by enjoyable moments. She joked that her editor advised her to include ‘fun stuff,’ but acknowledged that challenges inevitably return. She summarized it simply as, ‘That’s my life.’
