'I’m just seeking help for my anxiety and depression at the moment,' she told In Touch magazine on Wednesday.
She posted an Instagram picture from a plane on Wednesday morning with the caption: 'Arizona here I come... I can't wait to be back to my normal self... this is for me and my family.. Novalee and Tyler I love you both very much!!!'
It follows a series of worrying tweets both from her and husband Tyler Baltierra.

She concluded, 'You guys have NO CLUE on how much you lift me up sometimes.'
The couple married last August after dating for 10 years and their personal struggles have played out on camera.
The high school sweethearts gave their firstborn daughter, Carly, up for adoption six years ago but continue to have contact with her.

She discussed her battles on the Teen Mom OG season 2 reunion in February, revealing that she was suicidal at one point.
'It’s hard. I [didn't] want to do anything,' she confessed. 'I [couldn't] even emotionally or physically take care of my own self.'
'I remember sitting in the bathtub and thinking, "I’m not waking up another day feeling like this."'

Earlier during the hit MTV show's season, Catelynn sobbed as she told her husband, 'I just need encouragement.'
She also praised his support, adding: 'It’s good to have somebody to push you to do something because those are the last things you want to do when you are going through it.'
'You don’t want to get dressed. You don’t want to get out of bed. I wanna just sleep my life away.'
The couple even participated on season three of VH1's Couples Therapy in 2014 to try and work on the pressures that had built between them.
