Teen Mom OG star Catelynn Lowell says she's 'going to treatment' after thinking 'of every way to kill' herself
Teen Mom OG's Catelynn Lowell on Friday checked into treatment after she said she was flooded with suicidal thoughts.
The 25-year-old tweeted on Friday, 'Well today I thought of every way to kill myself.. so I'm going to treatment.'
She added the hashtags, '#thiswontlast,' '#KeepTalkingMH,' in reference to mental health, and '#makeChesterProud,' referring to late Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington, who took his own life this past July. (She tagged Bennington's widow Talinda Bennington in the tweet, as well.)

The 25-year-old reality star also uploaded a photo of the underside of her arm, with a large tattoo that read, 'My story isn't over yet.'
The Port Huron, Michigan native said in an extended statement to US Weekly that on Friday, she thought of methods to end her life 'from wrapping a belt around [her] neck to just running [her] car into an electric pole.'
The MTV star said, 'I’m taking the time I need right now to take good care of myself,' before launching into a list of reasons she was grateful as she fought to stay alive.
'THANK GOD I have a support system and a HUSBAND and a DAUGHTER… thank god I am self aware,' she said. 'I’m seeking treatment and I WILL get better… anyone feeling alone you ARE NOT ALONE!'

Her husband Tyler Baltierra, 25, tweeted he was 'incredibly proud of [his] wife ... [as] when she thought she had no choices left, she reached out & decided to LIVE today!
'My life would be desolate without her in it,' he wrote. 'You are beautiful, strong, worthy, & loved @CatelynnLowell #KeepTalkingMH.'

Lowell last year spent time at an Arizona facility as she battled anxiety and postpartum depression.
She told People this past April that she was 'doing very well' and 'way better' amid the stint. She said, 'I had a panic attack this morning, but I worked through it. It’s just knowing the things that you have to do to work through it.'
Catelynn and Tyler have had two children; they gave their daughter Carly up for adoption in 2009, and have a two-year-old named Novalee Reign.
