Demi Moore Heads To Hospital To Treat 'Exhaustion,' New Yorkers React

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) -- Actress Demi Moore is in the hospital.

Amid reports of substance abuse and an eating disorder, a statement was released by her publicist:

"Because of the stresses in her life right now, Demi has chosen to seek professional assistance to treat her exhaustion and improve her overall health," her representative said. "She looks forward to getting well and is grateful for the support of her family and friends. We have no information beyond our statement."

While there was no mention of her estranged husband Ashton Kutcher, New Yorkers are spectating that this is the cause for her suffering.

"No man is worth rehab," Vincenza Alleva told CBSNewYork.com via Facebook.

"Its terrible what she's been through," said CBSNewYork.com Facebook fan Nancy Calegari. "Hopefully, this will make her stronger and she will become an example for her daughters that women can overcome being betrayed."

Others are less sympathetic.

"Everyday there are Americans facing unemployment, broken marriages, losing their homes," said Joel Borofsky. "Why should I care anymore about her plight. At least she can afford professional assistance."
