Owen Wilson's Shocking Secret!

| Filed under: Owen Wilson

anewne.jpg

The National Enquirer was the first media outlet to report about Owen Wilson's suicide attempt, and now their new cover features a disturbing headline.

According to the mag, the comic actor previously attempted to kill himself TWICE!

Sad but believable. People who attempt suicide usually do it more than once before they are successful.

Hopefully Owen's future will be healthier and he won't want to end his life again.

    I wish the media would just leave this poor guy alone. I know it's "news" and a story but this poor soul needs his own time and space to work things out. He's never been a media whore like Lohan, Britney and all so just back off at a time when he really needs that. Recovery from such a thing is not easy, especially when the universe knows about it. Owen, you are an adorable comic actor and we've enjoyed you in so many movies. Please don't hang it up! But stay away from the drugs that won't help you and embrace the ones that will through proper monitoring.

    The fact that he has done this more than once tells me that he is just an attention seeking little boy and I just dont have any compassion for these types of people. Get a grip dude. Man up.

    I don't wanna sound like one of those haters who says Owen has a perfect life and "what the hell is his problem" …. but thinking (too much) about how even someone with such a great situation (hot career, decent looks, lots of funny and famous friends, tightknit family, boatloads of money, etc etc ) would want to "cash their chips in" does make me wonder why I am sticking it out with my sorry life, one step away from moving into my parent's basement, stuck in a dead-end job with no signs of anything changing for the better anytime soon. Owen, yer bringing me down hard. If even you can't keep it together, how are all of us schmoes with pathetic little lives supposed to keep keepin' on? If your life sucks that bad then my life must be really really bad…. what was I thinking, trying to stick it out?

    Owen is the best, really hope he figure's things out, Im with the other guys, he does'nt deserve to be media fodder at a time like this. Owne has always been private and not used the media to raise his star.

    Lets hope he gets the peace and treatment he needs to get well.

    To the people who look at his money/fame and fail to understand–to quote a few of you–"what his problem is": all the money in the world cannot buy you peace. Personal demons, as many of us may know, often refuse to simply name their price, let you pay and then move on. Having a higher net worth than the average Joe has no bearing on this fact of life.

    I lost a loved one to suicide. It is the ultimate shelfish act. It is done TO the people left living. It is an evil, mean, shelfish, horror. It isn't about personal demons it is about punishing those around (or gone from) you. The suicide victim gets the last word. coward.

    43

    everyone shoul just leave him alone and give him his space…poor guy obviously is going through a rough time and I'm sure all the publicity it is getting isn't helping him. thelast thing he needs to see is a bunch of headlines about how he tried to kill himself- i'm sure he doesn't need any reminders.

  44. Areo says – reply to this


    44

    All these attempts over a flat-chested actress whose family got wrecked by him? Did he not see it coming? OW had never been funny, he's the worst actor cos' he looks, acts, moves & sounds EXACTLY the same in each & every movie. He blurs one movie into another, a.k.a. ruins the movies. And now this coward is trying to gain attention by 'faking' suicides? If he was determined to kill himself, he would be dead by now, THREE TIMES DEAD!

  48. dani says – reply to this


    48

    I doubt he actually tried to commit suicide… i believe it was more a cry for help. When men really want to attempt suicide they usually opt for the more extreme measures like hanging or shooting themselves. Cutting wrists and overdosing on pills (especially taking them all at the same time and throwing them back up) are not usually successful means of suicide.

    Re: Areo

    There is no way Owen is "faking" his suicide attempt. Have you seen him since he left the hospital? He looks like he's been through the ringer. There are so many other ways to promote yourself other than a staged suicide attempt. Like just being out at the clubs and soaking up all the exposure. I don't buy it. He has some serious demons. He needs help and will probably need help for a long, long time. This didn't just happen overnight or because of Kate Hudson.

  61. get help says – reply to this


    61

    Not for nothing, but how can you "try" to kill yourself 3 times and not succeed? This man really doesn't want to kill himself he wants help and it is obvious he is not getting it. If he continues he will most likely do it, but it will be an accidental suicide. If his family and friends really care about him they will get him out of that environment, away from Hollywood and the drugs and get him the mental help he needs. I hope the people around him just aren't looking at him with dollar signs. He needs intervention from people who care about HIM and not his career.

  62. nancy says – reply to this


    62

    Haven't read all the comments, so maybe this has been brought up already. (If so, sorry for the repetition.) Does anyone remember The Royal Tennebaums, how Luke Wilson plays a character who tries to commit suicide by cutting his wrists? Am I right on that?
    Anyway…depression is usually a medical problem, and needs medical treatment. Hope Owen gets a good doctor who knows his/her stuff. Sometimes people are resistant to treatment. Hope this isn't so with Owen. I love that man.

  63. nancy says – reply to this


    63

    CORRECTION

    I meant to say that some people RESIST treatment, don't want to be treated, think they can handle things on their own.

    Did NOT mean that they're resistant as in "can't be helped through treatment."

    68

    Man, I really hope his doctors can figure out the most effective anti-depressant/treatment for him! Trust me, this kind of experience is not fun and he's not doing it for drama queen purposes. He's really hurting inside. And the most frustrating thing is he has so much love in him and surrounding him, but he can't see it because of a nasty trick his brain chemistry is playing on him.

    I dont' get these people. The want to be in show business, they have everything materialistic that they need, however, they don't know what to do with themselves. They are lost inside. It's sad. If I had their money, I would find plenty to do. I would travel, get involved with charities, and date people not in the public eye. I hope Owen makes it. He is a fine person and actor.

    Re: jason
    To Jason: I agree with you…..if he could finally admit it and get acceptance from his family to be who he really is, then and only then can he like who he is so that he won't need drugs anymore to dull the pretending to be someone he is not pain…..this is one man that desperately needs to come out of the closet……to save his life…..I love Owen Wilson and want to see him in more movies, and I don't care what gender he prefers to be with……he is one of the greatest comics we have going for us….not to mention a fabulous writer…..he is never going to be able to conform to his family's wishes, no matter how much he tries or how much he wants their acceptance of him, and if they want him to stay alive then they need to encourage him to be who he is and not live the lie that is killing him…..poor tortured man….there is absolutely nothing wrong with being gay for petes sake……did his family crawl out of a cave or something……why can't he be gay?………I can see him in the future (if he gets the help he needs) as a sober gay man living a nice quiet life with his life partner….surrounded by dogs and a roaring fire in a country manor of some sort, playing backgammon and sipping on hot tea and SMILING contentedly because he finally found the love of his life……..and oh yeah…..he doesn't contact his family….at all….especially Luke……

    1. the national inquirer is far from a reliable source! and 2. obviouslyl he's not committed to the idea of suicide or he wouldn't have 3 failed attempts under his belt. i know that sounds harsh, but come on now…

    76

    Re: Owen, yer killing me!

    I'm with you 100%. Hearing about someone who seems so lively and genuinely, and of course successful going through something like this is just even more depressing to us joe-schmoes who have 1/1000th of what this individual has, and are still hanging in there day to day, rinse wash repeat.

    Obviously being wealthy and famous does not even remotely mean someone is problem free. But the fact that they could have so much more than us, and still go through these things is a huge hit to us lesser's ambition.

  77. fang says – reply to this


    77

    To all the dickheads who say: "He's rich and famous, what does he have to be depressed/suicidal about": Imagine having the world at your feet and feeling either nothing, or utter despondancy for no "good" reason…day in and day out….weeks, months…maybe years. You can't reason your way out of it. In fact the more you try to twist your brain around how you're feeling, the worse things get. Sometimes having things "hard" makes things easier, because there's a tangible reason for how terrible you feel.
    .
    To all the people who think that 2 prior attempts means he's attention seeking: Look at the statistics. Sure guys use more lethal ways of commiting suicide, but still the average is about 5 attempts before doing yourself in. And these are statistical norms, not hard and fast rules. Wrist slitting, while less lethal, doesn't mean the intent is any less lethal. Also, people are often torn between living and dying and it's unsurprising that they seem "half arsed" about ending their lives. Being suicidal is conflicting, draining and confusing. The suicidal people might want the care and compassion they need, but cannot provide themselves. This is NOT "just attention seeking".

  78. fang says – reply to this


    78

    To all the people who call suicide cowardly: Why don't you sit in a room with a gun in your mouth, or a blade at your wrist, or a packet of paracetamol and see how easy it would be to do yourself in. Yes it's difficult for the people left behind. Horrible. Painful. But if you're that depressed that you want to die, how that will affect everyone else isn't too high on the agenda. If a perfectly mentally healthy person killed themselves just to hurt YOU, yes, that would be selfish, but funnily enough I don't see that happening too often, if at all.

    In short, this place is full of dickheads, who obviously haven't been suicidal or depressed themselves. You should feel blessed you can't understand what Owen has done. Feel infinitely lucky that your neurotransmitters and cognitions allow you to wake up every morning and do the things you need to do…to feel happy when good things happen to you…to basically feel good about being alive, despite what life throws at you.
    .
    And to anybody on here who is as disgusted at this cunts as I am: Fuck them! They might have smiles on their faces, but they have lumps of coal in their hearts, and they will have to live in a compassionless, judgemental world they've helped to create.

    seriously can't believe people are calling suicide selfish and saying they'l go to hell.
    im just glad you havn't felt what it feels like to want to die so badly. and also its not easy to commit suicide, what would you people know at all? besides, isn't it so much more selfish to say things to people who are feeling so awful they actually think about killing themselves! grow up!
    I wouldnt even wish suicidal idealation to any of you people, no matter what evil things you've said on here and thats saying something. I just hope none of you realise just how wrong you are

    Perez Hilton / Perez Sez is: Extremely ”Gay” and BORING!!! You acted like you have never seen an entertainer before and the excitement you felt being in the presence of a (real) star simply overwhelmed you. Perez, you are truly the “ONLY” person in the world making money (short lived I hope) for absolutely NO TALENT, NO CLASS, NO RESPECT FOR OTHERS and saying things to create turmoil, jelousy, bitterness, heartache, sadness….etc., of the people in the entertainment business,(who are the TRUE entertainers of America) and then you seem to think of yourself as a “STAR”!!! Perez, when it stops for you it will be VERY abrupt. It is honestly a wonder we have anyone who would want to entertain us with people like you. YOU ARE A VERY “LUCKY”, UNTALENTED TROUBLE MAKER.

    Half the people replying on this page have not progressed beyond a very primitive level of thinking (if you could say they think at all!). They should stay in their caves and spare the rest of us the tiresomeness of their utterly nonsensical comments. It's no wonder they are so jealous and bitter when surely they can't have made it very far in life themselves and probably won't do so in the future without significant effort - and not because of what life or anyone else could have done to them, but primarily because they have chosen to *not* use their minds constructively. Although their actions are very cruel I wouldn't go so far as dignifying them with the label "evil" as that would imply a minimal level of intelligence, and it would also give them the attention that *they* are crying out for.

    I know Owen is way too clever and aware to take any of this useless negativity seriously. I also know he will grow and move through this very difficult time and I hope it will help him to know that so many of us (the ones who have a heart and a brain - the only ones whose opinions matter here) genuinely appreciate his admirable qualities such as his heart, wit, humour, loveability, sensitivity, charm, emotional intelligence and humanity. He is also adorably handsome and attractive and those who are so mean about his nose obviously either don't know his heart or are just not capable of looking beyond the surface and I am sorry for those people. And besides, even if he's just not your idea of physical attractiveness, appearance is a minor factor in the attractiveness of someone who simply dazzles by virtue of his personality and heart alone. Those are far better things to have than looks. It just so happens that he does have looks as well and I'm sure a good part of that comes from his personality anyway.

    As for anyone who thinks this is pandering to a spoiled baby, I would want anyone … anyone … to get help recovering from depression regardless of "status", class, race etc. It just so happens that he is a celebrity. And contrary to what a lot of jealous, petty people shamelessly believe, just because he's a celebrity does not mean he should be denied the help and reassurance that any depressed person is entitled to - just because some people (er .. spoiled babies rather) can't move beyond their bitterness and/or jealous rage. Depression afflicts every possible category of human being however you want to define those categories. People, if you actually used that grey stuff between your ears you would know this. Grow up … oh and while you're at it, get a life and then maybe you won't be so hateful.

    WE LOVE YOU OWEN!!!!

    Somewhere out there, there is a someone will love you, and who you, having healed from your breakup, will be able to love back. And if they don't well then they should! What's wrong with them for goodness sakes! Just give me a call. ;)

    Life will get better Owen. We love you, I just wish love were enough to make it all better. I know it's not that simple … But you're a winner and a blessing to us all. Please get better.
