2. I was gonna ask

How in the F do you OD on muscle relaxants? I didn't know those things could kill you.

3. Some of them, like Flexeril, have a very powerful sedative effect.

So it probably wasn't all that different from, say, a Valium overdose.

4. heard just a bit of it- I had heard the interview she did with him previously

so sad, she noted that he had survived for so long, so sad that he took his life after all his experiences.

5. Very sad

From the interview she did with him a month ago. it sound like he was over his suicidal phase.

7. Yes

I have been so sad about him. I listened for years to the 7 or 8 songs of his I downloaded, but I never really knew who we was, just his name and that there was a tribute album that I didn't even know the purpose of. Now I'm listening to everything else and wishing I'd paid better attention all along. That's why I'm sad I guess, for myself, for missing out. I am sick about the money troubles he had and I know he has peace now.
