Steve-O: “I Am in the Looney Bin”

Under the title “You should all know I am in the looney bin,” the Jackass star, 30, writes:

“They call it ‘code 5150,’ that means ‘psycho,’ legally, f—-n bat-s–t, certifiably.

“I’m outta my mind, believe-you-me. How’d I get this way? How can this be? It’s gotten so bad there’s nothing left of me.”

He adds that pals, including Johnny Knoxville, “came to my home” and physically “forced me into the hospital.”

Steve-O appears under the influence in a new new YouTube video (see above). It was posted days after TMZ.com reported that he is being hospitalized at a mental health unit of L.A.’s Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

News broke yesterday that Steve-O — who once dated Nicole Richie — has been charged with felony possession of cocaine.

The charge stems from a March 3 arrest for investigation of vandalism and possession of a controlled substance at his Hollywood home.
