In my fifth grade year (6 years ago), my elementary school principal was found dead on a bench after overdosing on some medication. I'm not sure why, but I'm almost certain it was suicide. He was a wonderful and caring man. He's truly missed.

A guy I was dating back in 2006 was found dead in his car from an overdose. I can't remember if it was heroin or meth, but he used both. It was truly sad. He was training to be a firefighter and just got lost somehow...

An old friend nearly died many years ago from a heroin od. As a personal aside, I must be quite far removed from the current popular culture because I had never heard of Mr. Hoffman...

Yep, myself 10 years ago I nearly died while in a treatment center. 7 years sober now. There is hope and a solution to the problem.

My best friend 2 years ago tried to kill himself with a ton of pills. Luckily someone got him to the hospital to get his stomach pumped

I will never understand why people do dangerous drugs such as heroin and cocaine. You can have a whole lot of fun with safer drugs like marijuana and LSD.

I overdosed several times before I sought treatment. I'm lucky to be alive. 2 years 6 months from heroin.

I wonder if he started with marijuana. People say its tragic. I disagree. It's idiotic and stupid. I have no sympathy whatsoever.

I worked at a music summer camp for years. One of the really decent kids that would attend every year OD'ed on heroin and died over the school year. I was shocked.

A girl died at our hospital last year. She was 16 years old and was drinking with friends. She was also diabetic. Her friends just dumped her out of a car at the hospital at the front entrance and she died.

Two kids on my son's hockey team. Nothing worse than seeing a high school hockey jersey draped over the lid of a casket...and twice.

A guy that was part of my group of friends in high school overdosed and died a couple years after we graduated. His older brother was also part of our social group. It has been really tough on the family.

I am so sad! He always played such complicated and interesting characters. Not that many actors can play the roles he could..what a waste! Drug addiction affects so many. I pray for his family during this tragic time in their lives.

Nobody has ever died from overdosing on marijuana. Just a reminder to legalize something safer than alcohol.

One of my good friends from childhood died Wednesday from a heroin overdose in New York. Very sad time for so many.

My husband's cousin died of a drug overdose about five years ago. He was in his early 20's. I don't know if his mom will ever quit blaming herself and start to let go of her grief. :(

Bold prediction- Tomorrow Phillip Seymour Hoffman will hold a press conference. First question - "how did you convince the medics you were dead?", to which he will smirk and respond "Acting"
He will then be awarded the Oscar in every category.

My closest girlfriend from time I was 2. She got hooked on heroin at 17 and after many years went thru rehab and was on methadone but I guess the urge was too strong. She ODed and was dead for two weeks before her grown son found her. Very sad.

One of my best friends in 5th grade. We never knew he was doing anything. Weirdest thing was he died from an "white out" OD. I also have an uncle who OD'd n died several times. Each time they managed to bring him back. He still uses n won't quit.
