Teen Mom Amber Portwood has been rushed to the hospital following an apparent suicide attempt.

The 21-year-old MTV reality star was found unconscious at her home just after noon on Tuesday with a rope around her neck according to RadarOnline.

Portwood, mother of two-year-old Leah, is being treated at St. Johns Hospital in Anderson, Indiana. According to a source, her on-again off-again boyfriend, Gary Shirley, became concerned about Amber’s state of mind after a phone conversation with her, and sent his mother to check on her.

Police and an ambulance were called to the scene.

“It’s believed she may have taken an overdose of some kind of pill,” the source revealed. “She also may have tried to tie a piece of rope or string around her neck.”

Portwood has regained consciousness and is in stable condition.
