Philip Seymour Hoffman Found Dead

I was furious last night when Access Hollywood started a segment by saying "Was break up with girlfriend tha cause of his overdose?..." How dare they shift any blame to her.

She did what she had to do for her kids. Those pics of him on the plane just make me so sad.

That is horrible. If she hadn't: 'Girlfriend let him shoot up in front of his kids'. Poor woman.

I was under the impression they'd been living apart for awhile--his rehab stint was last May--obviously he was still using and she knew it, so why let him move back in. It seems she was still in contact and attempting to maintain his visitation with the kids. So really I'd say his using probably led to the separation NOT the separation caused him to relapse.

Most likely his girlfriend is full of guilt, anger, sadness and "what if's" right now but in reality PSH is the only one who could stop the spiral, not her. So I hope for her sake that she realizes that eventually. Also hope the press stops with the breakup angle.

It seems like he was heavily involved with AA, if so, she might have been a member of Al-Anon, and there they teach you to take care of yourself, not enable the addict. He was shooting heroin and drinking heavily, probably hanging around with some unseemly characters, she did the right thing for her and their children and should never feel guilty about it.

I thought when in rehab or out of it, one has a sponsor they can rely on? Where the fuk was his?!!!!!

A relapse after 20 plus years soberity? That IS tragic. How horrible, I feel awful for all those who loved him. *sigh

I cant deny i felt uneasy after reading that..i did.After 23 fucking years..you think after so long they are safe..i hope my Emily will stay clean and strong..

Effie they are NEVER safe. The temptation will always be there, lurking in the back of the mind, sometimes quietly, sometimes jumping up and down squeaking "Hey c'mon now, just once for old times sake, it's been long enough for it to be ok just this once.."

A former addict or abuser of any substance can't afford to get complaisant, ever, because that's when it will bite 'em.

I know,Kitty,my girl...it is mostly in the addict,s mind..i only hope and pray for those struggling to win the battle..physical detox is easy ,the need for drugs is what brings them down..I think the press should leave the mother of his children well alone,she goes through her own particular hell now and 3 kids to look after,poor things..

I have a really hard time feeling sorry for him. Sucks a talent is gone, and sucks for the kids. That's all I'm going to say.

This news made me so sad... what a great fucking actor.... " i sharted"

CNN and some other news outlets have been making it sound like there is some high-end drug dealer in Hoffman's neighborhood. Now I'm wondering how many other celebs and such get drugs from this person.
