I am hearing so much stuff on CNN regarding the reason for Michael Jackson's death.

First of all, he was given Diprivan at home which is only supposed to be administered in a hospital setting with all of the monitoring equipment available there.

Then today I heard that Michael was taking 10 Xanax a day, down from 30-40 a day.:eek: I take one .5 mg a day, and that relieves my anxiety. Thirty is a month's worth for me. I believe that if I took 30 in one day, I'd be dead. Not gonna try to test that. Not ready to be eaten by worms six-feet under.

Apparently he was getting these huge doses because his "people" were each getting a month's dose each so that he could take a month's worth per day.

So sad and tragic. Like they said on CNN, Britney Spears' family intervened on her behalf, and she is behaving. But they are saying that even though Jackson's family tried to intervene on his behalf, they didn't want to alienate him. That tells me that they didn't want to anger him and, as a result, be cut off from his money. After all, he was much more successful than all of the other Jackson kids put together.

So sad.

Peace to you, Michael.

Bottom line, it was just a simple case of a missing childhood.

The stories coming out point towards him being a huge opiate addict...

I had a missing childhood, but I have been very functional with a small amount of prescription medications, a little therapy, and a strong desire to be very successful.

ditto here, too. Mr. JR says he is amazed that I turned out so well. :lol:

Anyway, I've been hearing the same thing about the daily amount of xanax. I also heard that those who take the higher doses begin to become more and more tolerant and need more to feel the effect of it working. Not unlike an alcoholic.

Anyway, it's all sad. I can't even imagine what his children witnessed as they grew up around all of his dysfunction - the monitors, the IV drips, the live-in dr's, etc. :shock:

We'll talk via PM sometime.

As a daily user of Xanax, 30-40 a day is just suicide.

Yes, MJ's children have lost their childhoods being exposed to such extreme and unthinkable behavior. I can relate by becoming at the age of eight the "parent" due to my parents' extreme, yet understandable, behavior after my brother was run over by a drunk driver. They never recovered.

I heard that instead of Botox injections, he was having clorox injected which in turn reacted with his wax nose producing toxic gas

Micheal died because:
1) people are so obsessed with celebrity they wouldn't leave him alone
2) because he took pills

Sad that even though he's dead, people still won't leave him alone.
