Kelley Wolf<\/a> opened up about her struggles with mental health in an 11-part Instagram post, sharing that she at one point believed she was “in the CIA” and was “running for President.”<\/p>\n Wolf, 49, addressed those struggles and apologized to her ex, actor Scott Wolf<\/a>, their three kids<\/a>, family, friends and community in Utah in the candid Instagram post shared on Friday, Aug. 28.<\/p>\n “Wow … I have taken about 100 deep breaths to write this. How do I even start,” she began the 11-part carousel. “It’s been a year since I recognized what everyone around me could see: I was not well, and I needed help.”<\/p>\n She continued, “I felt like my brain had been hijacked, and the world was moving at the speed of a freight train. It turns out that is exactly what happened, but I didn’t know it.”<\/p>\n The executive coach and author went on to say that she was “completely delusional” for a time and has spent the past year “working with incredible doctors, therapists, psychologists, and healers.”<\/p>\n She said that she has since learned that she had experienced “breakthrough drug-induced mania with psychosis,” which she claimed was brought on by “a perfect storm” of “stress, past trauma, hormonal shifts, and hallucinogens mixed with prescribed medications.”<\/p>\n Kelley said that not only did the condition cause her to do and say “cruel” and “vicious” things to those she loves most, but it also resulted in “grand and delusional ideas.”<\/p>\n She explained, “I think one of mine was that I was in the CIA and that I was running for President!”<\/p>\n Kelley also directly addressed her husband, Scott, 58, and their three children, Jackson, 17, Miller, 13, and Lucy Marie, 12.<\/p>\n Kelley Wolf’s apology to Scott Wolf, their kids and others that she shared on Aug. 28, 2026 “I am so sorry. My husband of twenty years was taken through a nightmare that wouldn’t even fly in a movie script; it was so brutal,” Kelley said in slide four. “The things I did, said, wrote, and posted caused profound harm and were not based in truth or reality. And they caused pain 1 could never imagine to the people I love the most.”<\/p>\n Later, in slide eight, she continued addressing her family, writing, “Causing you pain and being the reason you suffered will haunt me for the rest of my life. It was my job to protect you, honor you, and keep you safe, and I became the cause of your heartbreak. I am sorry.”<\/p>\n Kelley Wolf and Scott Wolf with their three children at Universal Studios in L.A. in February 2026 “You never gave up on me, and you fought like hell until you landed me in safe harbor. I owe you my life. I will work hard to use this life to leave it better, to pay it forward, and to never give up on the power of love,” Kelley added.<\/p>\n The former reality star, who appeared on season 9 of The Real World \u2014 The Real World: New Orleans<\/a> \u2014 went on to apologize to her community in Park City, Utah, where she said her family has lived for 20 years.<\/p>\n Kelley Wolf in 2025 “Thank you for loving our family and continuing to prove why this is a place where we found the meaning of home,” she wrote.<\/p>\n Kelley was placed under an involuntary psychiatric<\/a> hold in Utah in June 2025 following reports that she had been behaving erratically. The incident came three days after Scott announced he had filed for divorce<\/a>.<\/p>\n Scott filed for a restraining order<\/a> against Kelley on June 25, 2025.\u00a0He later withdrew that petition<\/a> in July after the pair reached a temporary agreement granting him sole temporary custody of their three children.<\/p>\n Scott Wolf and Kelley Wolf in 2023 In August 2025, Kelley was arrested<\/a> on suspicion of electronic communication harassment and electronic disclosure of personal identifying information at a home she was renting in Summit County, Utah.
