    I feel so sad for his family and friends, even Lea Michelle, and I can't stand her.

    Having a loved one succumb to their addiction is gut wrenching. I really hope if this was drug related, the posts about it here and elsewhere, are kept to a minimum. Let the guy rest in peace.

    I was reading awhile back a few stories from people who had met him. And everyone ha nothing but wonderful things to say about him, from fans to people who had worked with him. He seemed like such a gentle yet troubled soul.

      I met him when the glee cast performed at the White House. He was the only cast member mingling with the crowd and signing autographs. He was so unbelievably nice and seemed genuinely happy to be there.

    I am so sad about this. I do watch Glee and for some reason he has always pulled at my heartstrings. By all accounts Cory was gentle, kind and wonderful. I feel very depressed today. My thoughts are with his family, friends, and Lea.

    I woke up at 5 and saw that was breaking news on my phone. Was utterly shocked! RIP :(

    My child suffers severe depression and is in a treatment facility as we speak . Many of the other patients are heavily addicted to drugs at her age and even younger. It has been such a sobering experience to see kids beginning rehab and the rate of those who are repeat patients. 2 of the kids had been back upwards of 15 times. I can't begin to understand how that can happen?

    As a responsible and loving parent ,my child's circumstances are heartbreaking for us. We are blessed there are no substance abuse issues in our situation.

    Addiction can be a life long battle. Some people never win the war. Tragic loss..

    @Pip, I disagree that people should 'keep discussion to a minimum' if his death was caused by drug or alcohol abuse.

    Discussing what happened is how people learn to avoid his mistakes. After Health Ledger's death - which has been said to have been caused by him taking some sleeping medication, then getting groggy and confused and taking the medication again, and then perhaps a third time - I've made a careful practice of keeping all my sleeping medications in a separate room. I have to get out of bed, turn on a light, etc. to get at them.

    If Cory combined meds, misused meds in a some other dangerous way, or had some other 'teachable moment' for everyone who uses alcohol and medication both legally and illegally, then discussing it is the best thing we can do.

    Cee Kay, perhaps I should've been a bit clearer. If they want to use this to show the dangers of drugs and alcohol, that is fine. The first reveal today was about this man drinking on vacation.

    He hasn't been dead 24 hours. I find it sickening using that info, the morning after his death, to get more clicks for this site. I realize this is a gossip site, but I am allowed to be disgusted over certain things here. That reveal is one of them.

    I feel terrible for saying this (but not really) I think Lea is going to milk this for all the publicity she can. If they were taking separate vacations things might of been off between the two.

    Though I don't think she will reach the level of Michelle Williams reinventing their relationship after Heath died publicity tour per movie.

  42. mannyv10:02 AM

    My guess is he did his last hit of heroin. For some reason heroin users OD on the last hit they take before quitting. I guess they load up an extra-large dose or something?

    Very few other drugs will kill experienced users. He didn't sound like he took pills, etc.

    Cory died in a hotel. John Belushi and Chris Farley both died in hotels. Last June, Lindsay nearly died in a hotel. Some crazy stuff happening in hotels. I gave up on Glee after season 1 - except for the occasional peek to look at the ridiculously hot Naya. Cory seemed like a good guy who knew how lucky he was to have the job he had.

    This news surprised and saddened me. I knew Cory had some problems, but I never anticipated this. TWLOHA founder Jamie Tworkowski wrote a blog post when Amy Winehouse passed and I think it's also very fitting for this sad news. I'm mobile and can't find the actual blog post, nor can I make this click, but here's a site that has the full text.

    This is very sad even though I know him from a couple seasons of Glee. It shocked me, maybe because I was reading reveals about him posted and then read this which was a little tacky since the reveal would've had to be put up after the RIP.

    He obviously knew he had addiction problems and was fighting them even if it wasn't sticking. Peace to his family.

  70. Goodnight7:45 PM

    I didn't expect this. I know there has been quite a bit of talk about Cory drinking after rehab but I have to wonder if maybe what killed him was returning to drugs. A lot of people OD and die when they've been clean and then suddenly pick up where they left off with the drug use. Their bodies can't tolerate the change.

    I don't think the issue with Heath Ledger was the Ambien - it was mixing it with other drugs. Assuming he was prescribed 2 tablets and he did indeed get confused and take 4 more, that wouldn't have killed him, even if he weren't a long-time Ambien user (which he apparently).

    I take Ambien and while people react differently to drugs, I have certainly never forgetten I've taken them. I might decide to take more because I'm not asleep yet (I suspect this is what Heath did), but I don't forget. Most Ambien-related fatalities happen when people mix it with alcohol. Ambien already makes you do weird things, but mixing it with other drugs and alcohol is a recipe for disaster.

    So sad to lose someone so young and talented. RIP Cory.

    deree, blessings to your daughter and your family. I've been in treatment three times, so I know it's tough for both a client AND her family. I promise, though, that there WILL be brighter days ahead. She will probably still struggle at times, but the good times DO happen and those of us with MI learn to really appreciate them as they come. Stay strong for her and I hope she can do the same.

    Let's all try to love each other a little more this week, eh? Things like this are a good reminder to do so, I think.
