From what I read, they think it was an accidental overdose of sleeping pills, he had a hard time sleeping when he was working on a new role. I don't think he was a druggie =/

well i would like to think that he wasnt a druggie!

I still cant understand how you can accidently overdose on sleeping pills. If you were in the right state of mind common sense would tell you that any more than the reckomended dosage is dangerous and could lead to death.

My brother tried to kill himself this way, same senario....in bed, pills scattered!! Only thing different was that he rang us all up to say that he loved us and said goodbye!! Havent heared if heath did that yet!

Any who enough of that!!

i feel deeply for his family and his little baby girl!!

Some people seem to think that more will help, but won't hurt them. It's sad to think he may have taken his life, but I highly doubt it.

When your haven't slept for a long period of time common sense really doesn't kick in any longer.
Anything to help you sleep, you become desperate for it.
Chances are if he hadn't been sleeping like he had said, in a quote I just read.... then he certainly wasn't in the right state of mind.

Steven says when they say "drug overdose" it usually means they took to many pills and passed out and when you do that your body tries to vomit them up and you choke on your vomit.

I think that he had been depressed for awhile, hadn't he? After he and Michelle split up...their breakup shocked me almost as much as his death. When Matilda Rose was born, they were talking about wanting a dozen kids.

So sad. Sad

It was on CNN down here, and a couple other news stations. But not our local news, I don't think...I missed that yesterday.

Are they showing the U.S elections in Germany??

Yea, Anna Nicole was just famous for being a prostitute I think??? Not too sure!!
