It’s being reported that Steve-O is currently on suicide watch at L.A.’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after threatening to kill himself.

He was drug tested before being checked into the Thalians Mental Health Center which specializes in crisis intervention. He was originally put on a 72-hour hold but that has since been extended to 14 days.

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

A family member says Steve is extremely bipolar and has not been treated for the condition.

“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.”

Last weekend Steve supposedly e-mailed suicide notes a bunch of people saying he was heartbroken. A female friend and a bodyguard were kind enough to take him to the hospital Sunday, but when they got there Steve freaked out.

“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.”

Cocaine and mental health problems do not compliment each other. Steve needs to grow up. He’s been a party boy long for far too long now, it makes me wonder if he will be strong enough to pull his shit together? Or is it too late?

Update: Steve-O has also been charged with felony possession of cocaine stemming from his March 3rd arrest.

Shocking.
