This shouldn't come as a surprise, but….
Star magazine is reporting that Steve-O has been hospitalized and is being held on a suicide watch.
The Jackass star is being held at L.A.'s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center after threatening to take his own life.
That's not funny stuff!
According to an insider, Steve-O was taken to the emergency room on Sunday afternoon. After drug tests, he was checked into the Thalians Mental Health Center — known for doing crisis intervention — where he was put on a 72-hour hold. That has since been extended to 14 days, Star has learned.
How very Britney of him!
"Steve is stabilized on meds at this point," the source says. "He was also treated for burns on his skin as if he had been putting cigarettes out on his own body."
The reality TV star is said to suffer from bipolar disorder. Definitely Brit Brit-ish!
"Right now he's in his extreme mania," a family member tells the mag. "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."
Tthe situation escalated this past weekend when Steve-O e-mailed suicide notes to several friends, blaming a broken romance.
Get better, bud!
