We were so thrilled when she came home and reunited with her family, but earlier today, Catelynn Baltierra shared the news that she's decided to return to treatment once again -- and this time she'll be staying for a full 6-weeks.

The announcement came in the form of a tweet, which Cate also posted to Instagram. Not surprisingly, the post was flooded with comments of well wishes and support from Cate's loyal fans.

Yes, indeed, she is. Catelynn first entered the treatment facility in Arizona back in November, after admitting that she'd been having suicidal thoughts. And while she briefly came home right before the holidays, by Christmas she had checked into the facility again, because she reportedly wanted to finish out the program she had started.

She wound up coming home again in early January.

At that point, it was reported that Catelynn was giving up alcohol and was planning on remaining sober and attending outpatient treatment.
We can't help but be so proud of Cate not only for going back to treatment to make sure she gets all the help she needs, but also for being so open and honest about it.
Of course, being vocal about her struggles is nothing new for Cate.

Holy shit this spoke to me.. #merrychristmas and know that YOU ARE WORTH IT!!! #mentalhealthawareness #staystrong #thistoshallpass🙏 #youarefuckingawesome #youarefuckingstrong

She shared this back in 2016, as a means of putting it out there and raising awareness.

In the meantime, we hope she realizes just how many fans are rooting for her, and how much we all respect her for sharing her story. With how candid she is being, there are likely so many people who are going through similar challenges who will find hope and inspiration in her journey.
