Steve-O Hospitalized, was it a Suicide Attempt?

"Jackass" star Steve-O has been hospitalized at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center and has also been charged by the L.A. County District Attorney with felony possession of cocaine.

Regarding the hospitalization, we're told Steve-O was admitted to the
Thalians Mental Health Center last Sunday -- the same place Owen Wilson
was at.

The drug charge stems from his arrest on March 3 for
allegedly vandalizing his neighbor's property, whereupon cops found him
in possession of coke.

Back to the hospitalization, witnesses are claiming that there were burns on his skin all over his
body which I guess don’t find too shocking since that is what he does
as a profession. And also his family and friends are claiming that steve suffers from bipolar disorder.

“Steve is stabilized on meds at this point,” the source
told Star. “He was also treated for burns on his skin as if he had been
putting cigarettes out on his own body.”

“Right now he’s in his extreme mania,” the family member said. “His
concerned friends and family are hoping he’ll seek treatment. He
doesn’t need jail, he needs therapy. We’re just really hoping that this
will be the wake-up call that gets him back to himself.”

But the situation escalated over the weekend when Steve-O, 33,
e-mailed suicide notes to several friends, blaming a broken romance.
Eventually a woman friend and his bodyguard took him to the hospital
around 2pm on Sunday. But he caused a major scene in the hospital, says
one insider.

“Steve started flipping out. He told doctors he wanted
to hurt himself badly. He wanted to break every bone in his body one by
one.”
