He ended up in the medical wing this weekend after slashing at a tattoo of Amy on his arm with a razor blade when she failed to show up and support him in court on Friday.

The junkie has been described by fellow lags as “a hollow shell” after he refused to use shower rooms or talk to other prisoners.

Instead he sits in his cell and slashes his arms.

Blake — awaiting trial for assault and perverting justice — has also failed a third drugs test since he was remanded to jail, and could face a separate court case for his habit inside the nick.

A prison source said: “Blake is in a serious mess.

“His self harming is worse then ever — he is cut to ribbons but carries on gashing his arms with razor blades. He won’t talk to most other prisoners now because he gets threatened and hassled for money, so he sits in his cell either cutting himself or doing whatever drugs he can get.”

“He’s not coping with prison life.”

It seemed strange to us that prisoners who self-harm are given access to blades in their cells, but the source confirmed lags are allowed safety razors — which they then snap to expose the blade.

Yeah...giving prisoners razors to shave with probably isn't such a good idea.  Maybe they should make Blake grow a beard.  Hope all that dope and high living was worth it, buddy. 

I said back when they released her just before the Grammys that I didn't think she'd spent enough time in inpatient rehab (at that point, about two weeks), and it appears that outpatient treatment hasn't done her any good.  Cleaning up for an event in your life is never a good idea...once the event has come and gone, you no longer have a reason to stay clean.  You have to make the decision to clean up for yourself, and any events that come along are gravy.  Amy has not yet reached that point.  I sincerely hope she does before it's too late.

At this rate, she'll be back in rehab before long...or not with us for long.
