UPDATE: Sinead O'Connor is reportedly "safe and sound" and receiving medical assistance, according to Irish police.
A distressing update appeared on Sinead O'Connor's Facebook page on Sunday (Nov. 29). The status, which comes from her verified Facebook page and appears to have been written by the singer-songwriter, includes the sentence, "I have taken an overdose" and reads like a possible suicide note. She added she is staying at a hotel room in Ireland under a different name.
Over the past 24 hours, there have been a series of disturbing posts on her Facebook, stemming from a battle with Irish folk musician Donal Lunny, the father of her youngest son, Shane, whom the singer alleges needs psychological treatment and Lunny won’t allow her to see him.

"There is only so much any woman can be expected to bear. What was done to me this week was appalling cruelty. By my husband, my family, by St Pats and by An Gardai Siochana, by my son, Jake and by Donal Lunny and Angela singleton, by my son's girlfriend, his friends... after everything I've been put through and been forced to go through alone .. And punished for having to go through since I had the surgery on August 26th.
Or since Shane became unwell in March, This week has broken me. The withholding of my babies from me without any sound reason by their fathers, Frank and Donal, and by Jake and the rest of my family, is a horrific set of betrayals. And has been going on since I had my surgery.
The last two nights finished me off. I have taken an overdose. There is no other way to get respect. I am not at home, I'm at a hotel, somewhere in ireland, under another name. 
If I wasn't posting this, my kids and family wouldn't even find out. Was dead for another fortnight since none of them bother their hole with me for a minute. I could have been dead here for weeks already and they'd never have known.
Because apparently I'm scum and deserve to be abandoned and treated like shit just when I've had my womb and ovaries chopped out and my child is frighteningly sick. I'm such a rotten horrible mother and Person, that I've been alone. Howling crying for weeks.
LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME!
If the Internet was down, would she wait until it came back on line to off herself?
Sad.
Try ripping up pictures of the Pope and shaving your head again.
Such a waste of talent, her fame lasted 3 minutes and ruined her life.
Drama queens can be so tiresome. But hope she gets help.
That’s how you talk?
How do you differ from the leftist liberal masses?
Regardless of her political positions and moronic posturing, this woman needs help...
I hope she gets it...
“If the Internet was down, would she wait until it came back on line to off herself?”
You know it. Because the internet is all about HER!
If your life is consumed with anger, almost nothing will bring internal peace.
I never understood why people liked Amy Winehouse. Her music never impressed me.
Sinead, on the other hand, seemed like quite a good singer. I still listen to her stuff. But she’s messed up. Always has been. Hope things work out for her.
Logical outcome for a raging militant liberal.
WHO??
She’s been a fruitcake for quite some time.
Did she have her head shaved one too many times?

Another reason i don’t do Facebook.
O’Connor has not had the public’s eye for a while, and her publicist might have suggested this for a tear-jerk.
She(?) has never caught my fancy, even in the ‘80’s.
