Re: Matthew Perry Dead at 54
Michael Jackson and Alan Rickman I can understand. I'm gonna feel the same way when the film composer John Williams dies. But Chandler? LOL  |

Re: Matthew Perry Dead at 54
When Alan died I was in a state of complete shock. It took a long time before I could watch anything he had starred in again. People are always like "But he was just an actor, it's not like you knew him". But or those of us who lose to lose ourselves in another world or a few hours, they're more than that.

Re: Matthew Perry Dead at 54
Perry, 54, was found unresponsive in late October "floating face down in the heated end of pool," the autopsy report said. His cause of death is listed as the "acute effects of ketamine," with contributing factors listed as "drowning, coronary artery disease and buprenorphine effects." The report says the death was accidental and that no signs of foul play were suspected. The actor had struggled with addiction for many years, although he reportedly had been clean for 19 months, the report said. Perry had been receiving ketamine infusion therapy for depression and anxiety, with the last treatment reportedly a week and a half before his death, the autopsy report said. Ketamine has been approved by the FDA as an anesthetic since the 1970s, and research shows it may help some patients when used as a treatment for depression and anxiety, but experts say it also has risks. The drug has a dissociative effect, seemingly separating the mind from the body, and can cause hallucinations. It is known for its use in nightclub and party culture. The federal Drug Enforcement Agency warns that an overdose of ketamine can cause unconsciousness and dangerously slowed breathing. Trace amounts of ketamine were found in Perry's stomach, but the coroner said high levels of the drug were found in his blood: 3.54 micrograms per milliliter. These levels led the Medical Examiner's Office to conclude that Perry's cause of death was not from his prior infusion therapy — the drug's half-life is just 3 to 4 hours — but rather ketamine that was taken in another manner. How that happened, the autopsy report said, is unknown. |

Re: Matthew Perry Dead at 54
Maybe his body was damaged beyond repair by the years of abuse he put it through, and this was the last straw. I did ketamine therapy for a month under strict medical supervision (it has to be done in the doctor's office, and you have to stay in the office for at least 4 hours so they can monitor you) for treatment-resistant depression, and it worked wonders on my mood. At the same time, it does make you sleepy, but sort of like you're floating or having an out-of-body experience. It's a weird feeling, but it works when administered properly. As to how he managed to get his hands on that extra ketamine, it makes me wonder if this is another situation like Michael Jackson had with his Doctor and the liberal doses of propofol he was giving him. |
