Shelley Duvall Mental Health Update: ‘Shining’ Actress Does Not Want To Be Helped At A Facility

“Shining” actress Shelley Duvall is suffering from undisclosed mental health issues, but does not want to get treated. The star talked about how she’s been isolated from her friends.

“Suddenly, no one would return my phone calls,” Duvall, 67, told Radar Online in an exclusive interview Wednesday. “People who I had lunch with for years. Nobody would talk to me.”

When asked if she would want to get treated in a facility, Duvall said, “God, no.” She likened it to a prison.

“It’s very subtle,” Duvall explained. “They don’t say, ‘You’re a prisoner,’ but you can’t get out. And this one time this guy said, ‘Stand over against the wall.’ And I said, ‘What for?’ And he said, ‘I’m gonna take a picture of you.’ I said, ‘Well, you know I’m an actress. I’m going to go put my makeup on. He said, ‘You don’t need any makeup.’”

Even though she starred in blockbuster movies like “The Shining” and “Popeye,” Duvall does not have anything to show for it. “I have no money. I’ve made five TV series and a whole bunch of movies — and I have nothing!” she told Radar Online. “I’m miserable here! I really don’t want to die like this.”

What little money Duvall gets comes from her Social Security check of $1,660. Now, she wants her earnings. “I just want to get my f---ing money!” she said, according to Radar Online. “That’s all I want! My profits! I called CBS/FOX Video. And I said, ‘How much money did y’all make on distributing?’ [They said] $18 million net profit. I saw none! I was like, ‘Holy s---!'”

Duvall has not been diagnosed with a mental health issue, however, she talked about conspiracy theories during a stint on the “Dr. Phil” show in November. She told TV psychologist Phil McGraw that actor and comedian Robin Williams was still alive. She also said that she is being threatened by the “Sheriff of Nottingham,” who is a fictional character from “Robin Hood.”

“I’m very sick,” the actress said. “I need help.” Duvall was never treated by a mental health professional, the publication noted.
