Demi Moore is seeking professional help to treat her exhaustion and improve her health.
Her publicist Carrie Gordon said the decision is due to the stresses in Moore's life, and she looks forward to getting well.
Gordon did not release any other details about the nature or location of Moore's treatment.
The past few months have been rocky for Moore.
She released a statement in November announcing she had decided to end her marriage to Ashton Kutcher following news of alleged infidelity.
The two were known to publicly share their affection for one another via Twitter.
Moore still has a Twitter account under the name mrskutcher but has not posted any messages since January 7.
