The 63-year-old star took emergency leave from her chat show The View in May 2015 and has now opened up about a family intervention and needing intense therapy.

She explained: “I had a complete and utter breakdown. I woke up in Cedars-Sinai Hospital and for probably three days I knew nothing. I couldn’t think, I couldn’t talk, I could do nothing. My brain just shut down on me.

"I was doing too much of everything. My brain just totally fused and I just couldn’t cope with anything. My family put me into a facility and in this facility, the diagnose you, there’s therapists, psychiatrists and you do a lot of group therapy. And I found for me that the group therapy was the best thing that I could do because there were several people suffering with what I was suffering. My head was like a whirlpool going round and round and round, and not one thought would stay in.”

Sharon - who has Kelly, 31, Jack, 30, and Aimee, 33, with her husband Ozzy Osbourne - took one month off work to recover but has returned to health and has her condition “under control".

Speaking on her chat show The Talk, she added: “I feel now that I have got a good grip on the problem that I have and I’m in control, it doesn’t control me. So I’m in control of the condition.”
