Heather Doctor -- Why He Feared Suicide

Posted Mar 13th 2008 1:55PM by TMZ Staff

Sources say Heather Locklear was so upset Saturday, her doctor feared she might do herself in.

TMZ first reported that the doctor called 911 Saturday night, saying "I have a patient and I have a feeling she's suicidal." Sources say the doctor was afraid Heather might OD on depression medication. When paramedics arrived Heather was ok so they left within 10 minutes.

Heather's reps told us it was all a bunch of nothing, but clearly they did not bank on the 911 tape getting released. Yesterday, the Ventura County Fire Department released the tape with the "suicide" comment. We're told Heather's people were furious and contacted County lawyers, claiming the info was protected and threatening legal action.

The real question -- what had Heather so upset to alarm her doc? We did some digging and found nothing was going on between her and ex-hubby Richie Sambora. There have been rumblings there might be some tension between Heather and boyfriend Jack Wagner, but we can't confirm it.

1. I think it was because TMZ was stalking her and asking her nasty awful questions constantly.

4. The 911 call should not have been released. Medical privacy issue. I live in the same community as she does and I hope she sues the pants off them. As for the shrink? Hope she fires his a$$.

5. You can't confirm it, so you won't print it? When has this ever stopped you before?

6. TMZ needs to learn how to DEINTERLACE their screen caps before posting them, these ugly horizontal lines through nearly every picture they post make the whole site look trashy and tacky. Come on TMZ, it takes all of 2 seconds to correct a picture for the Web.

7. Why is TMZ making such a big deal out of this? It comes across like you guys are in the business of humiliating people rather than reporting celebrity news.
Your not telling us anything new with these repeat stories. And if you have any more information concerning this, maybe you should keep it to yourself and respect Heather's right to patient privacy.

8. Shame on you DENISE, drumming up publicity for your ... "Reality" show. OR is has been widely known that Wagner has quite the roving eye. But my money is on Richards.

9. "When paramedics arrived Heather was ok so they left within 10 minutes." Look those guys/gals know when a situation is serious they would have taken her in for an evaluation.. this was ALL some NASTY evil doers doings.

10. This seems like one of those events that is best discussed by Heather if and when she feels like it and only on her terms. Maybe a talkshow interview. It is good to see that someone actually cares enough about her that a call was made. Better safe than sorry. But this mole-hill is not a good foundation for a mountain of "oooo what's wrong with Heather?" What's the matter TMZ, are you just sorry that something tragic didn't happen?

11. HEY I JUST READ A WOMAN IN KANSAS GOT STUCK ON A TOILET FOR 2 YEARS..GOOGLE IT, IT'S FUNNY..

12. If I were Heather, I'd sue the county and her doctor, whatever happened to medical privacy. It's pretty clear, there is no story here let it go.

13. I read about that. The toilet lady had mental problems and refused to leave the toilet. Her skin grew around the toilet seat, and they had to remove the toilet seat and send it with her, attached to her rear, to the hospital where it could be properly removed.

Why did her boyfriend wait two years before finally calling the police?

14. Yes they edited out the address and the "Doctors" name.. ACTING anyone? This is all a smear on her.. you could pull a Doctors name out of the phone book and use ANY cell phone, come on it's all a smear aganist Heather.
