Slipknot's Corey Taylor Recalls Suicide Attempts
. He began self-harming around the age of 17 as he spent two years living under a bridge in his home town of Des Moines, Iowa, and wasn't able to escape from his mental health issues through writing. Taylor tells the You Rock Foundation: "The only thing that really helped was writing. It felt like when I was writing I could work it out and really be able to get my head around it. "I didn't have any money, I didn't have any notebooks. It was a really, really dark time for me. I definitely got to the point where I was ready to end it all - I had the razor in my hand and I started cutting myself. But it was a pressure valve kind of situation, where it wasn't like I was going to end it; I just needed to feel something real to snap me out of it." He later swallowed "a bunch of pills" in a more serious attempt. He remembers: "My grandma took me to the hospital, they fed me ipecac, I threw up, then they had to force-feed me liquid charcoal to get my stomach to settle down. That was probably the lowest moment of my life - because I'd done it to myself." Read more here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
