Glenn Beck’s suicidal reaction to pain medication

by Christian Grantham - 9:13 pm January 4, 2008

Glenn Beck had a ”phenomenally bad” experience at an unamed hospital and said he might name names upon his return to TV and radio on Monday.

Headline News’ Glenn Beck talks about his recent botched surgery, rails against the hospital where he was treated, launches into the Presidential campaign and a lack of compassion then talks about how he became “full fledged suicidal.”

Glenn Beck in his own words: Watch his rambling video [people].

“I had one of the darkest experienc.es of my life. May not has been as dark as, um, what will happen to me in the future when I see this tape on YouTube, Youtube, and I, I could have shaved. Um, I had one of the darker moments of my life, and I, you know I’ve had pretty dark times. And, um, it’s the only time in my life that I have had moments that could have come out of the movie Saw. Um, uh, the things that were going on in my head, um, and much of them drug induced, uh, with the medication they had me on in the hospital which was - I mean I just got off the phone with my doctor and he said you know you’re still on X,Y and Z, and I said, ‘no, that stuff spooks me too much.’ And he said, ‘well you’re on a combination of just about everything.’ He said, ‘you got just about everything that we have, uh, for pain.’ And, uh, I said, ‘yeah, I know, I’m trying to live without it now. Uh, but this stuff took me into places that, uh, my, uh, started on Thursday and by, by uh, uh Saturday night I was full fledged sucidal.”

    Has to be the medication. Either that or he is a complete babbling drama queen. If it was not the medication, then I say make him share a room with Britney Spears as punishment. I was cringing as a listened to this whining baby think that he is the only one out there going through something. What a sharp contrast to our wounded soldiers, who he even brought up. Hey Glen…you are no soldier. Suck it up.
