cause of death just released. It was suicide. Combination of antihistamines, amphetamines and alcohol. Heartbreaking

Heartbreaking for her and for those that  loved her.

Shocking and sad! She always portrayed herself as so confident, secure in herself, successful, competitive ( and usually won) and knowledgeable- I wonder if was an accident? 
So hard to understand how some people want death, and some people fear it 110 %...

My mother was recently hospitalized 3 months ago (88 yo), and had a very serious asthmatic/ COPD event. She was on super high levels of oxygen, struggling horribly to breathe, essentially machine breathing for her. The doctors thought she was on her death bed. As soon as I mentioned maybe it was time to go see Dad ( in heaven), her fear of death kicked in and she got better right away ! She was out of the hospital in a week, and has been totally fine for the last 3 months.

Do they  have a suicide note from her ?  Was she ill  with a cold and self medicated ? You'd be sueprised what combinations of stuff people take when they have a lingering cold / cough

Strange combination

That makes me so sad, but for some reason I am not shocked...just very sad. I hope she is now at peace.

According to NYT she was found unconscious in the shower surrounded by approximately 100 assorted pills.
