Author: Daniel Taylor 12,525 views21 Jul
As described in a post on his own web site that has since been deleted, Chiodos / Cinematic Sunrise frontman Craig Owens apparently almost overdosed on drugs last night, and has since checked himself in to a mental health facility:
Tags: attempts | Checks | cinematic sunrise | craig owens | drugs | emergency room | mental health clinic | mental health facility | power chord | yesterday morningso, after an attempted overdose early yesterday morning, i found myself awake in the emergency room around 8 - 12 hours later.
however, don’t worry about me, i’m fine. i am being checked into a mental clinic beginning tomorrow at 8 am.
i’d like to apologize to everyone at Power Chord Academy, for me not being able to make it to speak to all of the kids tomorrow in Chicago. i promise to make it up, the best that i can and hopefully will be able to reschedule the entire event.
wish me luck, and let’s hope that i learn from this, and that i am able get out very soon.
craig.

never knew he used drugs
I’ll just assume thats sarcasm
i wonder if this is true…? it’s not something to joke about, but i just cant believe it! he’s only what? 23? he has 2 awesome bands & he’s been touring? is he just stressed? hope he gets well soon!!
no it isn’t sarcasm…i really did not think that he uses drugs
Damn. That really sucks. I really love Cinematic Sunrise & Chiodos, and I really hope he gets better soon.
[...] announce co-headlining tour with Motion City Soundtrack this Fall. That is, assuming homeboy can get his shit together. It’s pretty bold, actually, that Chiodos’ handlers are assuming Owens will be ready [...]
[...] The other day, a post on Chiodos frontman and solo artist Craig Owen’s website said that he had almost O.D.ed on drugs and was taken to a hospital, then a nuthouse for observation. The post was quickly taken down, but Owens has now updated his blog with the details of the event, the situation surrounding it and his plans for the future. It’s kind of tl;dr but if you’re bored here it is: So, it’s no secret that I have recently went through one of the hardest times in my life. On Sunday, July 20th, I attempted to overdose on prescribed Xanax at my home here in Michigan. Flash ahead 12 hours later, I woke up in the emergency room surrounded by my family and best friends, with an IV in my left arm, and hooked up to machines. I felt confused, angry, selfish, and completely embarrassed. After being admitted to the hospital for a couple of days, I made my way to recovery and built up enough strength and courage with the support of my loved ones enough to make it back home. [...]
i love craig, i hope he know’s were all behind ihm
craig owens sufferes from a couple disorders such as bipolar, manic depression, and anxiety attacks.
and he just struck a low point.
he’s so amazing though, that he has the strength to get back on his feet and go back out into the world, with everyone knowing his problems and personnel issues. His strength is beautiful and inspiring.
i hope that he gets better!!!
D:
I love Craig and his music.!
I really do hope he gets better…
I’ll be praying for you Craig! [even though I'm athiest. :P]
Anything for your Recovery!
Can’t wait to see you guys in concert
