I came across this on another board. She needs Jesus just as much as any of us do. I don't know if this is a sign of a developing mental illness or something worse..

Britney 'attempted rehab suicide'

From correspondents in London
March 05, 2007 01:00am



BRITNEY Spears has flipped her lid in rehab, trying to hang herself with a bedsheet after screaming "I am the anti-christ" to frightened staff.
She made the demonic cry after scrawling the devil's number "666" across her head.
Spears's manic behaviour has concerned relatives who once again fear for her safety, and has staff at the Promises Clinic in Malibu, California struggling to cope.
The former chart-topper's troubles have been revealed in Britain's News Of the World, which broke the exclusive story.
Within days of her suicidal behaviour, Spears - who was in and out of rehab before shaving her own head and later attacking a photographer's car with an umbrella - was begging estranged husband Kevin Federline not only for a reconciliation, but demanding she wanted to soon have another baby.
The ordeal began when she terrified staff by writing the number of the beast on her head and running around the clinic screaming, "I am the anti-christ!"
"The clinic people just didn't know what to do," a friend claimed.
The pop star then tried to hang herself with a bedsheet was but was found before she could hurt herself.

Is this a credible news source? It just seems nuts. I feel bad for the girl.
I had asked the same question at first. I'll see if I can find any other sources on this. It doesn't seem like a tabloid site though. Supposedly there was a previous suicide attempt by walking into traffic as well..so given that it's a little more believable.

Actually, I've heard similar stories from various magazines like Peoples.

Praying for her and her family.

Please forgive me if what I'm about to post is unkind... but what does a young one think when they find themselves involved with a man who is already involved with a woman who is the mother of his children.

Does a young woman actually think that the man will not do the same to her that he obviously did to his other woman who is the mother of his other children.


In other words, Federline was a dancer for her during one of her tours. He was involved with another actress who was a mother of one of his children and pregnant with another of his babies. He left her for Britney.

Britney knew about her and the relationship and yet, that did not encourage her not to get involved with Federline.

It's a horrible and sad story and it's full of Hollywood stuff.

Yes... we most definitely should pray for her. She needs our prayers. Only the Holy Spirit can touch her heart and help her.

It is never wrong to pray honestly for somebody. It could be that Britney has very painful problems. I am an ex-child performer myself, but thank God I am not a former child star. This must be difficult to get along with. And this whole "Britney is a virgin" stuff, maybe someone told her that this was her image, but she herself knew it was not true — she later admitted that.
When I was younger, I once cut my hair, too. I left 1/4 inch or so on the scalp, but because I have pale hair, the skin remained visible. And yes, I was in some kind of trouble. Faith did help me a lot.

I've never been a fan of Britney's either but reading about what she's been through and doing to herself fills my heart with pity for her. The poor girl needs help and I pray she will find someone who can walk with her through this time and can help her become whole again. :pray:
