It's Official!

Filed under: Owen Wilson

mx0017186.jpg

The National Enquirer and Star magazines jointly broke the news of Owen Wilson's alleged suicide.

Well, it's no longer alleged.

TV's Extra has confirmed that Wilson did try and take his own life, and they have official documentation to prove it.

Extra has obtained the Calls for Service report from the Santa Monica Police Department, which lists the reason for the 911 call from Owen Wilson’s house as an “attempted suicide.”

The call was received on Sunday, August 26 at 12:08:16 p.m. The incident was “cleared” almost five hours later at 5:07:16pm.

There is still no clear motive for the attempted suicide, though numerous theories run rampant.

Thankfully Owen is in good condition now and hopefully he will get the mental health help that he needs going forward.

    Okay you lot that are bitchin just show that you have no compassion whatsoever and also shows that you have had no real life experience,lucky for you that you don't know anyone that suffers with depression because when you see it first hand you will realise that these comments that you have left are way out of line.
    Leave Owen alone to work through his problems,it's people like you that are the sick ones.
    GET WELL SOON OWEN WE LOVE YOU TAKE IT ONE DAY AT A TIME XXXX

    Leave the man alone, it is so sad that a human that lost the will to live the whole public has not know it. You can say no to a story even when others say yes. He has a great sense of humor he will make it through this, I pray he does.

    All around me are familiar faces,
    worn out places,
    worn out faces;

    Bright and early for the daily races,
    going nowhere, going nowhere;
    The tears are fillig up their glasses,
    no expression, no expression;

    Hide my head, I wonna drown my sorrow,
    no tomorrow, no tomorrow;

    And I find it kind of funny,
    ' find it kind of sad,
    the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I 've ever had;
    I find it hard to tell you;
    I find hard to take;
    When people running circles its a very, very - mad world, mad world;

    Children waiting for the day they feel good;
    Happy birthday, happy birthday;
    And I feel the way that every child should,
    sit and listen, sit and listen;

    Went to school and I was very nervous;
    No one knew me, no one knew me;
    Hello teacher tell me what's my lesson,
    He looked right through me, 'looked right through me;

    And I find it kind of funny,
    ' find it kind of sad,
    the dreams in which I'm dying are the best I 've ever had;
    I find it hard to tell you;
    I find hard to take;
    When people runnin' circles its a very, very - mad world, mad world;

    Mad world…

    Let's give him some privacy. He needs it now. He's not trying to put his shit out there for everyone to see like Britney or the other people covered on this site. I think he needs to be left off gossip sites for awhile to heal.

    I don't know the guy, but he's still in my prayers.

    Man, I did NOT see this one coming. I had heard rumours of drug abuse, but never in a million years did I think this great, funny guy would want to end it all. Shows you what a living hell depression can be (yup, I've been there and now at 40 with a happy life I'm so glad I never made the attempt — think of all the great stuff I would have missed!). Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem and you don't want to go there again when there are medications out there that can help you. Best wishes to Owen and to his family and friends that love him.

    Owen dumped Kate Hudson and chose to hang out with blonde airheads at the Playboy mansion instead.

    Kate is not to blame, Owen did this to himself.

    Theres lots of people suffering in the world who cherish life and who strugle to stay alive each day. It angers me when people who have everything choose to end it or piss it away.

    Its very sad but theres much sadder things happening in this celebrity obsessed World. Celebrities are a distraction from whats real and whats really going on. Try reading some real news sometime.

    219

    I have to say I think that it is horrible that you have chosen to publish such a private incident. Owen is clearly going through a troubled time and the last thing he needs is for everyone knowing about the incident. AFTER he respectfully asked for his space during this difficult time you still decided to comment on this matter. You are clearly not helping by publishing it and I think it is completely inappropriate and disrespectful!

    This just goes to show, no one is immune from mental illness. You can have the world at your feet, money, fame, and still feel like you want to die. He seems like a great guy and I wish him nothing but the best.

    Owen
    From one who knows the depth of darkness, I can tell you "take your time,
    don't jump right back into a maniac schedule, take time to heal and find
    some spirituality. This may seem like a stupid site to post this, but Perez does make me laugh, only this isn't funny. I repect you and wish you the best.
    It'll be a slow and rough road back , but you're a strong man and a real treasure in show biz. AND keep your sense of humor, even when you're crying. God Bless.

    Chas: Well what does it say? Is it dark?
    Richie: Of course it's dark, it's a suicide note.

    Some of these postings are very disturbing. Mental illness IS real, not just a bunch of symptoms and #104 and #105 are especially pissing me off with their commentaries. You can't just "snap out" of something like this and no matter how things look to others on the outside, it is what is going on inside that can afflict people with depression, bipolarity and a host of other stuff. Yes, we are spirit and life forces but we are also basically a bunch of chemicals. So telling someone not to seek psychiatric help or medicine or that they should "snap out of it" and get married and start a business and have a job have nothing to do with recovery either. Yes, routine is helpful but so are the right medications, if needed, and therapy. It IS in the head, but ISN'T, if you know what I mean. So don't diminish it. Some of the brightest, most brilliant, funniest, successful, attractive people are struggling with depression and other demons. Sadly, because of the many misconceptions out there, people with these afflictions often suffer even more because people say stupid things like "snap out of it" or "you LOOK fine! Get over it!" ERGH….I hope Owen gets the help and support he needs. And rest and a new outlook on his world. Believe me, it isn't always a cakewalk, no matter who you are.

    Honestly, if I hear one more time "Will Owen work in Hollywood Again?" I will be sick.

    Maybe what Owen needs is to get away from Hollywood to heal and connect with himself. I'm sure that Owen has plenty of $ to take care of himself. I've been suicidal before and it took YEARS of work on myself, forgiving myself and everyone around me, before I was healed.

    I pray for Owen that he finds peace.

    why do some of you idiots think it has something to do with kate wilson?
    obviously he has been severely depressed for some time…you don't do something so drastic over some woman you have been screwing…

  37. Someone who understands says – reply to this


    237

    I doubt Owen will even read this, but I feel compelled to respond.

    My heart goes out to him and as I've scanned the other posts, several ring true for me, someone who also has "been there, done that". Its a crazy place, its true- depression doesn't discriminate. I think its almost more difficult for those who appear to "have it all" and I can only imagine how this must be compounded by everyone's expectations to be happy and funny 24/7.

    Owen, give yourself some well needed space my friend. You have an illness, and with treatment, life can seem so much more manageable, and so much more "livable". Shut out negativity, and especially negative people- this is one thing that you can control. Take care Owen, you are in my thoughts and prayers…

  38. Bella says – reply to this


    238

    I hope you feel better, Owen… you will… I can relate, I suffer from severe depression and unfortunately it is not something you can just snap out of. Work it out, buddy, and take your time… know that there are plenty people out there who care about you.

    There's a time for us to let go
    There's a time for holding on
    A time to speak, a time to listen
    There's a time for us to grow
    There's a time for laying low down
    There's a time for getting high
    A time for peace, a time for fighting
    A time to live, a time to die
    A time to scream, a time for silence
    A time for truth against the lie
    A time for faith, a time for science
    There's a time for us to shine
    There's a time for misbelieving
    There's a time to understand
    A time for hurt, a time for healing
    A time to run, and make a stand
    This is the time
    Of our lives…
    SO DON'T EVER GIVE UP!

    Man, talk about harsh. I also read it as yeah he was succesful in his attempt at suicide. Wishing all good things for this guy. He's Blessed to have a good family. If the heroin part is true that's just a slow, slow form of suicide. Get all the care ya need, Owen Wilson. You'll come through this.

    250

    Wow! He really did not want to die, otherwise he would have bought a gun and shot himself in the head. HE WANTED ATTENTION FROM KATE (now she is only going to feel sorry for him). He would have went straight to HELL if he would have succeeded.

    251

    Amazing never would have thought it that he did major drugs. Looks so clean cut. I guess appearances can be deceiving. WOW….hope he wins the fight and gets well. How many more out there are there that LOOK like they're not doing drugs?

  52. AM says – reply to this


    252

    No clear motive? -It's called mental illness. That's generally why people attempt suicide.

    Why blame Kate?, all these people are so damn insecure. They rely on public approval for their own existence!
    He had everything going for himself, hopefully he was banking his $$ for when his genre of movie was finished and then he buys into some retail store or something and finishes his days in comfortable bliss. Geez!
    Maybe a cry for help more likely a cry for personal attention. We will see.

    265

    Kate Hudson had nothing to do with a suicide attempt. That I can assure you. It's all about the drugs people. 100% guaranteed and it's all because some bored fuck made a choice to use and abuse them. I don't give a shit how many druggies kill themselves. Good. Go to it and take your dealer with you. Almost all of the civilized world's problems stem from drugs & alcohol abuse (& religion). The world will be better off without your kind. There are a thousand more talented people lined up right behind you to take your place if you're not happy. You're not that talented, you just got lucky and now to piss it all away with drugs? Fuck you, you cry baby piece of shit.

    I believe that everyone should respect his wishes and let him deal with this matter privately. I understand that he's a celebrity, BUT he IS a person FIRST. What if it were YOU that hurt yourself. How would it make you feel knowing that EVERYONE knows about it. Everyone is discussing it. That itself will cause even more damage. People should just have some respect. Someones pain shouldnt be the gossip of the day.

  67. Owen Lover says – reply to this


    267

    How sad and unbelievable. I can't believe that people have nothing better to do than talk about his nose. He is a human being first and a celebrity second. I hope he gets and stays clean. I love his movies and have been a fan since 1999 when he did Minus Man.

    Get well soon, Owen. Your fans love and need you!!
