Owen Wilson Tries To End It All
« on: Sunday, August 26, 2007, 11:48:52 PM »
Quote
Owen Wilson sliced his wrists and attempted to commit suicide a new report from the National Enquirer and Star Magazine claims.  In what sounds like a tragic and horrible situation the report on the website details that Wilson was hospitalized after attempting suicide citing sources.

The Enquirer reports that Wilson was transported to St. John’s hospital in Santa Monica , Calif. on Sunday, August 26, by ambulance. Sources tell the entertainment magazine that that he "sliced his wrists and also took an indeterminate amount of pills."

http://www.nationalledger.com/artman/publish/article_272615663.shtml

One thing I hate about society is that the majority of people praise everything every celebrity ever does. On top of that, when someone criticizes a celebrity that same majority goes ape shit. So I'm going to say my piece and then you guys and go ahead and say the usual stuff like: "You're a monster", You're a horrible human being", "Be nice" and my personal favorite "You're just jealous".

You know what, I am jealous. Owen Wilson has an unlimited supply of resources (not so much talent, but everything else) but this loser still wants to kill himself...or maybe not because he obviously screwed that up. What does he have in his life to be so anti-life about? The paparazzi? You, Me and Dupree? I wish those were the most important things to worry about in my life, maybe then I could truly rest. However, I think this bungled "Kill Owen" fiasco was a half-assed attempt for attention. In all honesty, how hard is it to kill yourself? In fact, how can you dice your wrists open, take an "undetermined" amount of pills and still not die? Its called a lack of ambition folks, if he really wanted to kill himself he would've used a bottle of whiskey and a revolver like every other man thats wanted to end it all. Besides, they even teach fourth graders how to cut their wrists in health class. Its down the highway, not across the street.

Yup, anyone that tries to kill themselves and fails is just looking for attention, because killing yourself is a very easy thing to do.

Why even speculate?  None of us know what's going on in his life and it's doubtful any of us even care.  But come on, plenty of people who try to kill themselves are beyond fucked up.  Drugs, booze, whatever... half of these people are barely even conscious.  I imagine it's pretty easy to screw it up in that condition, and with celebrities it's almost always drugs or something.  It doesn't affect my life at all, and I generally hate celebrities, but I don't get the angst.  Who fucking cares?

Not trusting those rags at all, I looked for better authority.  This is the best I found, and they too are using the pulp trash as sources.  The hospital trip is apparently confirmed, though, so it's very possible this all really happened.

I'm with Que here.  Who knows what the hell was going through his head.  When that kind of darkness descends on you, your humanity bows out and something else takes over.  We're rational beings only when our animal needs are met.  Those always take precedence, deeper in our multilayer brains.

Just because you're a celebrity and make movies doesn't vaccinate you from mental illness.  In fact, most of the suicide attempts I see aren't "serious" as you would classify them.  But the attempt in itself is a cry out for help, lethal or no.  Something obviously had to drive him to exhibiting this sort of behavior.  No one does this for the hell of it.  There are plenty of other safer ways to get attention. 

I find your post very ignorant and in poor form.  In fact I'm reluctant to flat out call you an idiot, only because it's apparent you're mouthing off about something you obviously know little about.

That doesn't dismiss the fact that our only connection to him is through Hollywood. Who among us has a personal relationship with the man? Why is he any different than the hundreds (thousands?) of other people that attempt to commit suicide? I wasn't begrudging the fact that he has a problem, but rather our obsession with it. I hope that he gets help. By all means, fix whatever it is that caused you to do this. But this topic is merely a microcosm of the obsession that will fuel tabloids and papers. How much money be made from this mans suffering?

Who said he had a mental illness? He probably saw the next three movies he was contracted to make and decided to off himself. You sound like one of those people who feel sorry for celebrities...and I don't feel like writing anymore. How about just tell you take your self-righteous attitude and all your "knowledge" of suicide, pull out the stick and shove it all right back up your ass?

My so-called "self-righteous attitude and knowledge of suicide" comes from a BA and MA in counseling and psychology and strong background in counseling suicidal/homicidal people in a crisis setting.  What are your qualifications to speak on the subject?

Easy, I can see through bullshit. If he wanted to die, he would've done it. You kinda remind me of one of those "experts" that defense attorneys hire to testify that their client is mentally unstable. Do you think every person that tries to kill themselves is unstable? I think it means they have no resolve or ambition to follow through with anything. How many mentally handicapped people have you saved Dr. K?

some people who try to commit suicide never do succeed, even if they really want to die..  it's just the way things are.. if it's not your time, it's not your time, unless you're determined enough and blow your brains out.

Even then, some people don't die when pulling the trigger on their brains. 

How sure are you he cut his wrists the wrong way, or that he even actually cut them?  No one's sure at this point.

I don't feel pity for people who seek suicide as the way out.  I feel sad for them because suicide IS NEVER the answer... I've lost quite a few childhood acquaintances this way.. another who was a friend in highschool - yet, their pain still goes on... I don't know if you believe in ghosts, but i do.. And some of them are still ghosts - the ghosts are always sad and remorseful.

Nick, when someone wants to die, he has to overcome his self-preservation mechanism, which is extremely strong.  Wanting to die is very different from overcoming the fear of dying.  These two violent emotions fight each other off.  Some guys may be able to face the barrel of a loaded revolver and pull the trigger.  I can't.  I know that now.  But it is conceivable to me to go to sleep and never wake up.  I can't speak for Owen, but I do have some firsthand experience with this darkness.

Anyone who calls suicide cowardice has no clue at all how much fear must be fought off to get there.  If anything, someone who continues to live, though he he has given up on life, is twice a coward.

So many replies, I don't feel like quoting them all so just pay attention when I say your name.

K-Man: I answered your question, I think it's only right that you answer mine.

Ghandi: The real Ghandi was a great man, if you're going to use his name you should try to be more like him. You representing his name will only be abusing it, you should change it to something like Dan Quayle or something. I hope you're not a real Indian, that would be real disgraceful.

Pyro: ...I actually don't know much about you or what to say. My only recommendation is to be more memorable, try being interesting for a change.

Cobra: I never said suicide was cowardly, I never even said that every suicidal person is pathetic. I just think that Owen Wilson is pathetic for trying to kill himself and not doing it. He can literally do anything he wants, he could quit acting/writing today and still do whatever he wants. I honestly believe that if he really wanted to kill himself, he would've ate a bullet, jumped out of a plane 86 parachute, get in a shootout with the cops or even drink a couple bottles of whiskey and fall asleep on his back.

WindAndConfusion: Don't you think it's unfair that I get shit for actually using this uncensored board to express my thoughts? I could be like Que and use it to make up stories about being a drug dealer for the Russian mafia or some other fairytale. Wind, you have the right idea about this forum. I think you should make a topic, something that other people won't exactly see eye to eye with you and tell everyone what you really think.

I'm disappointed in you. This was pretty pathetic, even by your own standards.

It's clear that the only reason that you come on here to start shit is for some innate desire for attention, which presumably you aren't getting elsewhere. Go out and meet some people. Be happy. Stop coming on here and being an ass for no reason other than your own twisted amusement.

From Yahoo...

Quote
Wilson has two movies in production and two more upcoming releases to help promote.

DreamWorks Pictures said in a statement that filming continues on "Tropic Thunder," a comedy starring Wilson. The studio offered no details on whether Wilson's role in the movie, directed by Ben Stiller and starring Jack Black, would be recast.

It was also unknown if Wilson's hospitalization would affect his appearance opposite Jennifer Aniston in the 20th Century Fox comedy "Marley & Me."

A Fox spokesman told Hollywood trade paper Daily Variety that "it's a totally inappropriate question at this time" whether he would appear in the movie.

Wilson's hospitalization could also keep him from helping promote "The Darjeeling Limited," in which he stars alongside Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman. The Fox Searchlight film was to be released next month.

Paramount also had a Wilson film due out in March: the Judd Apatow-produced "Drillbit Taylor."

Treciokas released a brief statement Monday on Wilson's behalf: "I respectfully ask that the media allow me to receive care and heal in private during this difficult time."

I don't think trying to commit suicide is the right answer to his problems and all, whatever those problems might happen to be...Bleh @ suicide attempts by another celebrity -- first Amy Winehouse, now Owen Wilson. Great, more self-destruction for the media to have a field day w/ and publicize, when they got other things and probably better things they probably should be reporting for actual news -- bleh!

Maybe -- just maybe -- Owen Wilson just needs a freakin' vacation, needing to take a break from making movies and promoting them, if he is feeling at all overloaded and all.

And I'm betting, if you throw some personal issues on top of all of that workload, yeah -- Owen, I'm sure had probably made a hell of a lot of millions w/ flicks and all, so take a freakin' vacation and/or lighten your load of work.

Anyone know if Owen recently broken up w/ a girlfriend or anything? Or something happen to a friend or family member? Or what? What tipped him over the edge to resort to such a stunt???

Regardless, I do hope Owen can help get himself back together.
If he doesn't...well, there's nothing I really can do about that much....
And the same goes Amy Winehouse, too.

What are you complaining about?  It's not like anyone edited anything of yours or banned you.  You spoke your mind.  The others spoke theirs.  It just seems your skin is thinner than everyone elses.  They slag you, then just brush it off and ignore it.  Instead, you fire back.  And the firestorm (anyone remember him?) starts.  Just remember that everytime this happens.  It's not new, you shouldn't be actually surprised by it.  And didn't you say in the first post that you didn't care what the others were saying and that you just wanted to post whatever was on your mind?

You know what I don't understand? Why you think my "personal attacks" are unprovoked, you can clearly see in this thread that I was attacked first. All I've ever done is treated each individual how they have treated me, you get what you give people. Hell, I don't even carry my dislike for any of you over into other threads, I'm not as petty as someone like Que.

I don't have thin skin, if I did I would never come here. I not complaining about a lack of free speech here, I'm the only one who uses free speech on this board. I'm guessing thats why I get so much shit for it.

Nick while I would agree with your sentiment, there's a strong difference in expressing a well thought out, educated statement and just spouting off an ignorant, unfounded opinion about something you obviously know very little about.  You can't post bullshit and expect to not be called out on it. 

Free speech I don't have a problem with.  I do however have a problem with dumbass speech.  Your post is rife with inaccuracies about the nature of people who become suicidal and make attempts.  It doesn't matter if you're homeless or the richest man in the world, neither are immune to the processes that can make us feel that way.  Social status has nothing to do with the biological predeterminations that govern whether or not we will be mentally healthy. 

I can't blame you 100% for your post, simply because there are plenty of others who think just as ignorantly as you do about suicide, and mental health as a whole.  But I would advise you to read up on the topic, if you feel inclined to do so.

I'm not petty, I simply think you're a pile of human garbage for a variety of well-established reasons.  There's a difference.  Also, I try my very best not to let any feuds carry over anywhere.  It only comes up when you repeatedly pull the same stunts.  You have this idea that people are against you expressing your views or that we all disagree with you on every topic and just want to give you shit for it.  My only problem with you in *this* thread is that when K-Man told you that he didn't think you knew what you were talking about, which he had every right to say just as you had every right to post your own viewpoint in the first place, you posted the following:

How about just tell you take your self-righteous attitude and all your "knowledge" of suicide, pull out the stick and shove it all right back up your ass?

That was completely unwarranted, especially given that there's no past disagreement between the two of you.  I expect you to say shit like that to me because obviously we don't like each other, but I don't think you've ever so much as seen this guy around here before, let alone attempted to have a conversation.  I won't give you any guff over spouting off to me because I'm willing to take it just for the privilege of giving it back without having to stand on ceremony, but you don't have to act like a dick to everybody else.

K-Man: Apparently Wilson only had superficial wounds on his wrists and no one knows how many pills he actually took. Sorry, but I don't believe this was a serious attempt.

Que: You follow me around every thread to bad mouth me, even in the gaming forum. Don't try to act like you're the good guy here you hypocritical, lying...how about I keep this short and just say fuck you?

Not the best article to link to you, but it'll have to do for the time being. 

The term:  Parasuicide

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parasuicide

and an article on parasuicide being a strong predictor of a successful suicide attempt down the road

http://suicideandmentalhealthassociationinternational.org/SuiAfterPara.html

Point being it doesn't matter if it was a serious attempt or not, it's still a reason to take notice and concern. When you want attention do you take pills and cut your wrists?  Probably not I'd gather.  Because that's not a normal way to garner attention.
