Matthew Perry

Charitably, I prefer to think he was in a lot of emotional and mental pain to be using Ketamine, and so many other drugs. He had been in a supervised ketamine therapy program which usually is for depression and anxiety, although the presence in the stomach and length of time from his last clinical infusion indicate he was using it orally and unsupervised as well. The other mixture of drugs, and the comments of his household assistant, indicate that he was on a rollercoaster of drug usage unfortunately not uncommon in performers. Call it the Elvis Syndrome: you take uppers to "be on stage" and put up with the demands, and then downers to try and get some relief. And then it becomes addictive.

another privileged kid didn't know how good he had it

He was an addict, who couldn't get it under control. Sad.

not unexpected
can't imagine "drowning" in the hot tub without drugs/alcohol being involved (unless somebody held his head down)

addiction is an ugly thing

I don't think he was trying to kill himself but it sounds like being on ketamine was dangerous. I don't know much about ketamine but what I read on the internet, but he had to have known it was dangerous to be in the water like that. A couple of people have died that way, famous people.

Ketamin is often referred to as the memory drug.
In that it can give you a high but leave you with no memory of your physical pain afterwards.

More to come on this one I'm sure

What were the results

Not other than to say ketamin is a controlled substance..unless he od'd.

It's sad.

These things always make me wonder why some can stop using and some can't. There must be a brain switch somewhere.

May he rest in peace now:

There's no possible way he could get that much ketamine from a clinic. He had as much in his body as some people get for an operation. I think it was a suicide.

Uh, I feel badly for an addict, but he kinda promised.

Just another day

Who cares?

He’s dead with no evidence of foul play, so it doesn’t matter now.

Sorry but he was to stupid to know better

Heard it was from ketamine

He wasted his life, sadly.

Closet druggie.............died of an overdose of Ketamine that knocked his ass out and let him drown.

He overdosed with a party drug, lying to everyone that he was clean.
