Fears grow among Whitney Houston’s family that the singer’s teenage daughter may be suicidal after her mother’s untimely death.
Bobbi Kristina was rushed to hospital twice in the 24 hours following the discovery of her mother’s dead body in the bathtub of a Hollywood hotel.
The 18-year-old girl’s initial trip to the hospital came after learning of the devastating news, when the teenager reportedly consumed alcoholic drinks and was then given a sedative to calm her down by one of her mother's entourage. She ended up passing out, according to Radaronline.
She was then pictured being taken out of the Beverly Hilton- the same hotel where her mother had died just hours earlier- on a stretcher around 10.30am Sunday and rushed to Cedars-Sinai where she was treated for extreme anxiety.
She was released several hours later, but friends and family are still very concerned about her mental state and reports speculate that she may be bound for rehab.

While reports of prescription pills covering the bathroom and water being found in Ms Houston’s lungs have circulated heavily after she was found in hotel room number 434 Saturday afternoon, the Los Angeles coroner would not confirm or deny any of the rumours.
And, because the case has been placed on an indefinite security hold, those details will not be coming any time soon.
During a press conference Sunday evening, the coroner’s office said that the hold was requested due to the high-profile nature of Ms Houston’s death, and similar moves were taken for Michael Jackson and heiress Casey Johnson.
The details will not be released until the police investigation into the death is completed, which may take between one and two months.
The spokesman said that no one- including Ms Houston's daughter- may visit the body while it is in their custody, though the star's family would be able to collect the body in the coming days since the autopsy has been finished.
Paramedics battled to revive the singer but she was pronounced dead at 3.55pm yesterday afternoon, hours before she had been due to perform at a pre-Grammys party at the same hotel.
Houston was found dead under the water by her bodyguard in a luxury suite at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, which is said to have been littered with bottles of prescription pills. She was 48.
Ray-J mentioned 'missed calls' from Miss Houston, according to the International Business Times, adding: 'We all gotta live with that.'
At first it was thought that Ray-J had found Miss Houston's body but a statement was later released by his spokesman saying 'he was nowhere near the scene but no less distraught'.
According to reports on gather.com moments before the news broke, Ray-J was seen trying to console Bobbi Kristina, who was screaming, in the lobby of the hotel.
Bobbi Kristina is understood to have got into a 'furious screaming argument' with authorities who refused to let her into the hotel room to see the body of her dead mother. A source told People the 18-year-old was screaming: 'What's wrong with her? What's wrong with her?'
The singer/reality TV star and Whitney Houston dated between 2007 and 2009 but it was believed they had recently picked up their romance after being spotted at an LA restaurant.
Ray-J, 17 years younger than Miss Houston, is the youngest brother of the singer Brandy and made a sex tape with Kim Kardashian in 2003 which was reportedly 'leaked' on to the Internet.

Hollywood nightclub on Thursday night. She partied with a large group of friends before 'clashing' with security guards, right, then being driven away to her hotel, where she died yesterday afternoon
Bottles of Lorazepam, Valium, Xanax and a sleeping medication were found in the hotel room, it has been claimed. The drugs were believed to have acted as sedatives, causing her to fall asleep in the bathtub once they had been mixed with alcohol from the previous evenings.
As police look into the possibility that the star died from an accidental overdose, there are expected to be emotional scenes at the Grammy awards tonight with many of the singers inspired by Miss Houston dedicating their awards to her.
Miss Houston had battled ravaging addictions to crack cocaine over the years but the drug is not believed to have played a part in her death. Police searched the room for illegal substances after discovering the body.
Her family released a formal statement Sunday expressing their grief: 'We are devastated by the loss of our beloved Whitney. This is an unimaginable tragedy and we will miss her terribly. We appreciate the outpouring of love and support from her fans and friends.'
Police also turned away Ray-J from Miss Houston's suite on the fourth floor after he raced from his home following news of her death, reported TMZ.
Miss Houston's body is now at the Los Angeles morgue as her family and the public still await the toxicology and autopsy reports.
