Lisa Rinna’s oldest daughter that she had with Harry Hamlin, Delilah Belle shared an Instagram video of her talking about health challenges she’s been facing that subsequently resulted in her overdosing from prescription pills. But she did so by accident. The 23 year old said she’s been fighting Lyme disease, Epstein-Barr virus, encephalitis, and Pediatric Autoimmune Neuropsychiatric Disorders Associated with Streptococcal Infections (PANDAS) which required her to take a certain amount of pills on top of her having to see a psychiatrist over panic attacks that lead her to be overprescribed one set of meds.

“He overprescribed me with one medication that one of my friends takes like 10 milligrams, and he gave me like 20 milligrams three times a day and then he gave me 3 milligrams of Xanax a day,” she said. “So my body got dependent on Xanax number one, and number two, I overdosed. I didn’t mean to at all. I overdosed on this one medication called propranolol. I took Benadryl with it and for some reason, I ended up in the hospital.”
After overdosing she said she felt “hopeless” and “helpless.” She went on to say, “I wasn’t like a drug addict, but my body was dependent on it because of how much the doctor had prescribed me.” She went into a treatment facility in Arizona voluntarily for several weeks and the symptoms from her other health issues such as seizures due to encephalitis (inflammation in the brain) made her “a medical risk.”
What makes this even more of a sad case is the fact that her mother has been on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills walking around shaking a zip lock bag full of pills which not only in and of itself looked crazy but that behavior has to be affecting her children’s views on medication.
