Jonathan Rhys Meyers may have attempted suicide in London
This is sad news. According to the British media, Jonathan Rhys Meyers has attempted suicide in London. JRM allegedly took a “large quantity of pills†while he was in his home in the London area of Maida Vale. Paramedics allegedly found JRM “slumped†on the floor, but he was apparently conscious, and he tried to refuse medical attention. The paramedics called the police, and JRM was rushed to a London hospital late Tuesday night. Scotland Yard told the media: “Officers were called by London Ambulance Service following reports of a man refusing treatment. The man was taken to hospital.†JRM’s rep had no comment.
It’s widely known that JRM is an alcoholic, and likely a drug addict as well. He’s been in and out of rehab five different times (that we know of), and he’s gotten into some legal troubles over the years for his drunken or cracked-out behavior in public. Beyond that, though, JRM always seemed like a pretty decent guy, aware of his problems. He often comes across as extremely fragile - emotionally fragile, psychologically fragile. It’s possible that this wasn’t a flat-out suicide attempt, but merely a guy with problems not paying attention to how many pills he was taking. Or it could be that in a bad moment, JRM really did try to take his own life. I don’t know. But it’s sad. He really isn’t some kind Lohan about his problems - he’s not throwing his issues in our faces or anything. He’s just a dude with some major demons.

I feel bad for him. I remember really liking him in his early work, the one with Minnie Driver I forget what it was called, and Bend It Like Beckham. Then he had his racist outburst in the airport a while back and I no longer was a fan. Still I hope he can get his head in check.

How awful. He does seem like the anti-Lohan…someone who cannot get their sh*t together, but because they CAN’T as opposed to not WANTING TO.
He never looks happy. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a picture where he doesn’t look like he’s carrying 1000 pounds on his mind.

I can’t tell you how many stories I’ve heard in my 12 step meetings about pp who almost reached the point of suicide because they couldn’t get over their addiction.

NoooOOoooooooo…I am so glad he did not succeed. He is so beautiful and definitely one of my top faves for drooling purposes. There is a maintenance guy in my community who looks just like him but is Spaniard - its awesome. lol

Needs to look into pyroluria - most alcoholics have this disorder. Severe lack of b6 and zinc affects them pyschologically and they self-medicate with alcohol.
Godspeed..
