DOHERTY'S SUICIDE ATTEMPT

Troubled British rocker PETE DOHERTY considered killing himself on the night of his 30th birthday - he tried to throw himself from the roof of a hotel in France.
The Babyshambles frontman, who has struggled with drink and drug addiction, celebrated the landmark with a party in Paris, France on 12 March (09).
The singer admits hitting the landmark age felt depressing and he became suicidal after consuming a bottle of vodka.
He tells Elle magazine, "'I had this bash in Paris and it was an absolute disgrace. I just made a bit of an idiot out of myself. I don't even know exactly what happened but I ended up trying to throw myself off the top of the hotel. I wasn't happy at all about being 30.
"I went through a bottle of vodka. They presented me with this cake and I pushed it in the chef's face who'd just made it for me. Then the chef and the security guards were chasing me around. I think I escaped unscathed."

My thoughts are with Pete. It’s not unknown that drink and drugs combined simply distorts the mind and eventually kills, hence this irrational way of thinking and mindless behaviour. He should be grateful to God and proud to reach the age the 30 as someone who has overcome so many hurdles. Once he's over this bleep in his way of thinking his girlfriend/partner should tell him to officially apologise to the chef!
