OMG. I just heard that Fall Out Boy bassist (and Ashless Simpson’s BF) tried to kill himself. OMG. NO! Except not.

Pete Wentz has revealed that he once was so “completely lost and out of control” he tried to take his own life.

Wentz, 28, says he had seen several doctors who gave him prescription drugs but things worsened around the time his band had finished recording their major label record a few years ago.

“I got in my car. I remember I was listening to Jeff Buckley doing Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah” and sat there and took a bunch of [anxiety drug] Ativan in a Best Buy parking lot,” Wentz says in a video for MTV’s college channel MTVU.

“And I called up my manager because I was, at that point, completely out of my head with Ativan. And I was talking to him and I was slurring my words, so he called my mom and my mom called me and she came and got me and we went to the hospital.” (Us Magazine)

First of all, I tried to kill myself just now reading this lame ass story. Turns out you can’t make your own head explode like on Scanners. Also, is he fucking kidding? I don’t know what’s worse: trying to off yourself with Ativan (the aspirin of anxiety pills) in the Target Parking lot listening to sad songs like a teenage girl, or your mom driving over in her mini-van to save your crying ass and hugging it out on the way to the hospital.

Obligatory stuff: Teenage All suicide is no joke and the JED Foundation actually helps kids who are in trouble. Don’t kill yourself. Please. Or I will call you a huge pussy.

Here are some pictures of Ashlee Simpson, whom despite being utterly annoying, still manages to be hot.
