Not surprised. She has been a heavy drug user for years. It was bound to catch up with her.

Carrie Fisher had cocaine, traces of other drugs in system, coroner saysBut investigators could not determine what impact the drugs found in her system had on her death, which they ruled was caused by sleep apnea and other factors.

So bored of hearing about the entertainment industry's supposed idols and social elite always being revealed as coke heads, or pot-heads, or tax cheats, or mentally unstable. Everyone holds these people up as being something special, deserving of being worshiped on an extraordinary scale, and then are so surprised when they are shown to be far less admirable individuals than even your every day 9-5 average joe. Is anyone really surprised she was a cocaine abuser? REALLY? :-Cool/" Gull-a-bulls.

Reading the results of the autopsy made me very sad.

The enormity of her problems must have been overwhelming.

May she truly rest in peace for her struggle has come to an end.

...or maybe she was just another hedonistic, self-indulging drug abuser with too much money and too little self-control who was for years hiding her own personal failings behind a convenient facade labelled 'mental illness'. We'll have to agree to disagree on this one. The above twitter post is just another example of the politically correct pandering that goes on by uninformed global fanboy/white knight factions.

She will definitely be missed. She struggled with addiction for a very long time.

I really looked up to her badassery while growing up and I'm sure she will continue to inspire for years to come!!
