The troubled frontman attempted a drugs overdose at his Michigan home on July 20 and has subsequently checked into an undisclosed mental health facility.
A post on Craig Owens' (Chiodos) website was recently removed, it originally read as follows:
"so, 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.
Owens has now been referred to a mental clinic where he is currently being set for recovery before returning to play with Chiodos in the States starting August 10th.
