Jim Carrey's on-off GF, (they were on till 9/24) committed suicide by overdose. So very sad,
From TMZ:

Jim Carrey released a statement -- "I am shocked and deeply saddened by the passing of my sweet Cathriona. She was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil, to whom loving and being loved was all that sparkled. My heart goes out to her family and friends and to everyone who loved and cared about her. We have all been hit with a lightning bolt."
Jim Carrey's on-again/off-again 28-year-old girlfriend has committed suicide ... TMZ has learned.
Law enforcement tells TMZ, LAPD responded to a call in the L.A. area Monday night. We're told they went to a residence and found the body of Cathriona White.
Our sources say White left a suicide note addressed to Carrey which references their break up on Sept. 24. Cathriona tweeted on the 24th ... "Signing off Twitter, I hope I have been a light to my nearest and dearest."
Law enforcement tells us they believe she died from an overdose of drugs -- pills were next to her body. We're told 2 friends found Cathriona last night when they went to check on her.
53-year-old Carrey and White met in 2012, dated a few months and then split. They rekindled their relationship in May.

Such a lovely female. Sad to hear. Jim isn't exactly the most mentally stable guy to be around. He will miss her.

What a senseless tragedy. RIP. Too bad that beautiful young women have to be so dependent on their dates/boyfriends/etc. for their happiness. Some get into all sorts of troubles/problems for being too serious, way too soon. Wait a year or two, see what happens, or doesn't happen, in the relationship. Then, 'move on by' when necessary.

That is very sad. I have had several family members who have died from suicide.
It is a selfish act. However, you cannot blame the person. I cannot imagine feeling so hopeless that you don't want to live any longer.
My guess is if someone checked into her family history they would find one or more family members who'd done the same. We were told it often runs in families.
So much sadness for those who love her.

No person is worth committing suicide over!
She must have had serious self esteem problems, sadly.

Suicide isn't just about self esteem. There are so many reasons why people kill themselves. Very sad.

I don't know anything about her, but it is so sad. I was a student counselor at a crisis center on campus when I was in graduate school and later volunteered one night a week on the suicide prevention hotline in my city. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary situation but some are determined to escape.
