In a new video exclusively obtained by RadarOnline.com, the Blade Runner icon - who turns 50 in December - revealed how her parent's divorce sparked difficulties at school, while she was growing up in Chicago.
She says she experienced a "disconnected sense of reality" and began acting out.

"My parents went through a divorce which caused me to be a little bit more withdrawn," Hannah tells Celebrity Ghost Stories.
When she was seven, Hannah -- who later starred in Splash, Wall Street and Kill Bill -- says her concerned parents took her out of school and forced her to visit a doctor, who put her through a suite of tests.

"I wasn't communicative and wasn't behaving like the rest of the kids," she says in the video.
"And they thought I needed to be on some kind of serious treatment plan and I should probably be institutionalized."
Celebrity Ghost Stories airs Saturday, October 30, at 9 p.m. on the Bio Channel.

She needs help. She ended the career of Jackson Brown with lies. His response? He wrote FOR HER one of the most beautiful love songs "if you ever need holding call my name". He forgave her because he loved her. It must bite her every day.

"forced her to visit a doctor, who put her through a suite of tests." More of Radar's amateur writing. There is no such thing as a "suite" of tests. It's a "battery of tests." Apparently, a mere GED is all that is required to write for ROL.
