MYFOXNY.COM - The news isn't funny for Howard Stern sidekick Artie Lange.
The comedian reportedly tried to commit suicide over the weekend.

Sources tell the Post's Page 6 that Artie Lange's mother found him at his apartment Saturday morning.

The comic reportedly stabbed himself nine times suffering three deep wounds. Surgeons managed to save Lange despite heavy bleeding.
Lange has had a past history of drug addiction and canceled several recent comedy appearances.

He has not appeared on the Howard Stern Sirius show for weeks.
"I'm sorry. I just feel sick about this, I don't know what to do,"Howard Stern said on his show.

Stern talked about Lange and his situation for about 15 minutes Thursday morning.

Artie seems to me to be a lot like the internet with his mentality, if you simply cut your wrists he'd call you an emo fag. If you stabbed yourself 9 times, that's hardcore.

I loved when McGriddles came out... Artie would talk about them constantly on Stern.

Kinda sad, really. But honestly, it doesn't surprise me. Artie's mind is a twisted place.

I've always liked him more than Jackie; he's one of the main reasons I ever tune into the Stern show.

His book was also pretty entertaining.

It is sad, but if he dies, no one is going to say "MAN! We never expected this!"

Lange sustained six "hesitation wounds" and three deep plunges. (http://www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/stern_sidekick_in_suicide_try_5m9Hwhn1OvpONlzbsiW3 oJ#ixzz0bwOrsSYw")

Man, that's bordering on emo there...

Something about stabbing yourself instead of cutting yourself is rather hardcore IMO. Also the fact that it's not just hesitation wounds says it's not emo.

I'll be impressed with a suicide attempt when someone chews off their own dick and bleeds to death.

If one could reach it with their own mouths, I'd imagine there is plenty to live for in that person's case.

I mean as like you know, a contortionist. Jeez.

It is true that we haven't seen Ron Jeremy (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ron_Jeremy) try to commit suicide.
