‘PARALYZED’ J.LO DRIVES HERSELF TO BRINK! Fears for panicked perfectionist as she risks health crisis
WORKAHOLIC Jennifer Lopez shockingly admits she’s suffered panicinduced paralysis caused by her stressful and exhausting career. Now insiders fear the anxious bride-to-be may be on the brink of another frightening collapse!
As the aging superstar, 53, strives to stay in the spotlight — and plan her dream wedding with Batman hunk Ben Affleck, 49 — one doctor consulted by The National ENQUIRER believes her grueling quest for perfection may be putting her health at risk!
“The same factors which caused her to suffer these troubling problems in the past can absolutely lead to similar attacks in the present!” says Florida-based longevity expert Dr. Gabe Mirkin, who has not treated the Jenny from the Block singer.
J.Lo recently confessed that as she toiled nonstop in her 20s, her relentless schedule drove her into the ground — physically and emotionally — causing severe panic attacks and leaving her unable to move!
“All the work and the stress it brought with it, coupled with not enough sleep to recuperate mentally, caught up with me,”
The Hustlers hottie reveals she was “completely frozen” and “couldn’t see clearly.” The spooked songbird confides the symptoms “started to scare me and the fear compounded itself.”
Jarred J.Lo says she worried she was losing her mind, but a doctor assured her physical and mental exhaustion were behind her temporary paralysis. However, Mirkin warns she’s a ticking time bomb — and could explode again at any time!
The Marry Me screen siren — who’s mom to Max and Emme, her 14-year-old twins with ex-hubby Marc Anthony — swears she’s taking better care of herself these days.
But insiders say she’s still following the same grueling path that led her to past paralysis!
“She’s kidding herself if she thinks she’s leading a balanced life of wellness and getting ten hours sleep a night,” a source spills.
The tipster dishes the dedicated diva is working out at the gym two hours a day, staying up till the wee hours working on multiple projects — the wedding, her kids and, as The ENQUIRER reported, a potential new reality show — while eating virtually nothing to preserve her famous curves!
Adds the source, “Ben’s begging her to slow down because she’s pushing herself way too hard!”
Mirkin cautions keeping up such an intense pace could be dangerous and adds, “There is data connecting lack of sleep and appropriate rest to an increased risk in lots of areas. If she collapses again, it could be something very serious!”
