Dr. Drew Addresses Anne Heche Suicide Rumors, Brain Injury & Mental Health
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 сер 2022
- Award-winning actress Anne Heche was "declared brain dead" but remained on life support for organ donation, a family spokesperson said Friday.
On Thursday night, her family released a statement that the actress was “not expected to survive” and it had "long been her choice to donate her organs."
Dr. Drew joined the DBL panel to discuss Heche's crash, the nature of her injuries and addressed rumors that the crash was her attempt to take her own life, saying: "If you're doing fentanyl and cocaine together, you are definitely not trying to commit suicide."

A vet has already mentioned this: Everyone is concerned about famous people but say nothing about all the vets who served their nation and now are disposed as old clothes.
agree totally
@@Raven-yj5pp Sorry to hear that bro, keep your spirits up! Cheers and blessing to ya! 🙏
@@topsyturvyy4558 and right back to you. Thank you
@@Raven-yj5pp 😀
Because she had money.
I'm a formerly homeless vet. I was in shelters in LA. Here's what I know; people marched and cared about Brittany Spear's mental health, nobody gave a damn about mine.
Amen
You’re right.
Because your a nobody, lol
Just kidding, Spears is a dramatic wreck. Tired of hearing about her
I do.
Well they did lock Brittany Spears in a draconian conservatorship where she was forced to work insane schedules, forced birth control, her money was kept from her…
Goodbye Anne. You had some tough struggles during your brilliant life. I wish you peace and comfort.
To everyone else. She paid for her wrong doing with her life. Let her Rest In Peace now.
Anne clearly chose her end. Anyone who saw and heard her screaming down that residential street was shocking. The good news is, that she didn’t take anyone else with her. Mental health is such a difficult and complicated issue to help people with.
Anne did not choose her end~~Her mental issues did~~I really don"t think she did this on purpose~~So sad~~My heart goes out to all who were involved in this terrible tragedy~~You're so right about mental illness being difficult and complicated~~She did not do this on purpose Carmen Palenshe~~God Bless you and your family~~
"she didn’t take anyone else with her", she almost did, the homeowner was there. And she could've ran over an innocent pedestrian (thank God she didn't).
I'm very sorry for her kids. They lost their mom.
I realize everyone feels bad for her kids and I agree, but I also have to say was she MOM in the past while ..they must have seen and heard so many sad issues with her(. I can say these words as my now grown children and grandchildren have some pretty sad memories from people in our family, I am sure they will not ever forget those memories,the innocent ones live with that..I am sure it never goes away) God Bless to ALL this is very very sad, I am so sorry to everyone!
@@diannep6945 I agree with you. Sadly, because of Anne's ongoing substance abuse issues she really wasn't able to be emotionally present in her two sons lives. This tragedy will leave them scarred forever
Are her children hers?
Who did she have them with?
@@RLaraMoore Two dudes.
Total bummer, man. Audience wishes her survivors all the best. Cheers!
I’m troubled about this. My daughter and son in law were hit head on 7 years ago by a couple who decided to drive while high. She was medically induced for 7 days. My daughter and her husband had their lives change drastically and horribly. And, I had to stand by her side and watch her flatline twice. No one deserves that. They did nothing wrong but be on the same road as 2 thoughtless bastards. I don’t hate the driver, but I damn well blame him. I hate the wife, as she tried to get herself out of legal trouble by blaming it on my 2. Only problem was everyone saw them swerve suddenly in front of my family. They were completely left of center. Mental health issues? Screw that. I have had ptsd for over 30 years, but I’ve never used that as a reason to excuse killing someone. Now, everyone in my family has ptsd because of this. And, that includes their 2 children, who were 4 years old and a six month old. Try explaining to a 4 year old why their mommy might never come home. And, when they finally made it out of the hospital 3 months later, trying to find that new normal life was a nightmare. I’m truly sorry for her family. This has to be a nightmare. She didn’t deserve to die this way. But, imagine that lady in her house? Her life just got destroyed, and all everyone cares about is the actress. Her home was destroyed by negligence by someone else. Not to mention the horror of being there when someone crashes into your home, and everything explodes in flames. This is tragic on every level
Good post Agree with you, Best to your loved ones. Thank you for your response.
I hope her and her puppies get millions!
I’m not torn. I think she is 100% culpable, addicted or not, and she chose to drive in that condition. All these comments are like cocaine and fentanyl were in her drinking water. She chose to use substances. She also chose not to get help with her issues. She’s ruined so many lives.
Absolutely!!! 👍
I am glad that I am not the only one that feels this way. Although it is tragic that Anne Heche passed away due to injuries from the accident she is completely responsible for her reckless and irresponsible behavior. She crashed into a house so violently that the house went up in flames. The woman who owned the house lost everything and I am sure she will have PTSD from this incident. She is the true victim here
When my mental health was at its peak I took myself off the road and completely stopped driving. My paranoia made me believe people in the cars behind me were following me and I would speed and speed to get away. At any time I could have hit a child crossing the road or ploughed into a wall in my bid to escape. Thank God I had the insight to remove myself even though I didn't even know I was mentally unwell at the time.
Fia. Thank you for for sharing your truth. It HELPS me to understand you and maybe Ann. GOD BLESS YOU 🤟🀄🀄🀄🛐🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻🌹🌻👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💯🛐🌹🌻🀄
It's horrible that she passed, but it's also so frightening how many other lives could have been lost, as well.
As an addict, currently 12 days sober from alcohol, sometimes the addict brain takes over & can make us do the absolute wrong things.
Regardless of the things she may or may not have been on, she was a beautiful soul who had some issues. Her life has meaning, & her passing is a huge loss to us all.
Hang in there. Life can only get better after you learn to live sober! Bless you.
Well said. Wishing you continued success and peace in the new chapter of your journey. 🙏🏼
Congratulations on 12 hard won days! Here’s to day 13!
Yes, her life was. And blessings, strength and tenacity to you, Shannon. It can be a difficult and lifelong struggle. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and wisdom. I wish only the very best for you. 🤗
Maybe she was being chased by people for her celebrity.
I believe you could be suicidal without being conscious of it. Just not caring if you live or die. This is so very tragic.
*live or die
True she selfmedicated and she was honest about it. Being impaired will give one the courage to take your life.
Very perceptive of you, totally true !
I agree and she might have overdosed too and wasn’t even aware of what she was doing. Too sad; I sincerely pity her and now her children. RiP Anne
Yeah, just very uncaring in the consequences and taking high risk where she gets that Coke from !
That’s an interesting and good point. I never thought of it that way but it sounds like a possibility.
This is so sad and traumatic for so many people. My heart goes out to her kids that have to be hurting immensely.
Thank you for mentioning the victims. There are several. That’s where our prayers should be, with the renter, the owner and Heche’s family and friends. This should no longer be about her but what the many victims are going through and having to face.
I'm sure the personal injury lawyers are calling them....they'll get money from the estate for the house, belongings and suffering.
My heart goes out to her children. It’s so difficult to lose a mom at that age. There are so many layers to this story. Truly tragic, in so many ways. Love and light to all. RIP AH 🕊
A lot of you have been saying how you feel sorry for the kids and I'm sure right now is tough for them. But I want you to reflect on something how much do rich people really spend time with their children? They have nannies and old pears etc etc. No factor in you have a rich parent who also has a drug addiction. Which spends them zoning out a lot. And then there's more Nanny Grandma whoever so to feel 100% sorry for the kids now is absolutely genuine but in some respects since there's only a 4 to 5% success rate of 100% drug recovery on a drug of that magnitude, I know this is tough for anybody to hear but if you check your heart and know how we are influencing our children with our Behavior without us even knowing it. So to start feeling sorry for the children right now is real but maybe now is is a Time to Say now those kids have a better chance. I'm going to catch hell from everybody for saying this I'm sure but it's my genuine deep feeling God bless and God give hope to the remaining family.
@@OikPoinFive it's the family donating her organs I guess to gain some kind of credibility back because their daughter however is a drug addict they will not put these organs in anybody's body they'll be used for research but nobody will get a drug addict heart I promise you. I'm a nurse practitioner and I would stake my career on the fact that nobody will ever receive her heart
I drank into my 40s. I was a bar hopper, after work, in.NY. I went to a rehab in Kent, CT. Millions of AA meetings, and have been sober
Call me.
did your friends/family help you? I am wondering if hers did and gave up or something after no success
👍 👍 👍
Congratulations!!!!
One day at a time...🎑
She didn't passed out. Anne hit garage and the security man in an authoritarian voice was telling her "get out of car." She apologized, but he was going to call the police. Anne Heche thinking was "I'm going to jail, drinking, cocaine, hit property." Anne decided to run that's why she was speeding. Nobody drives straight into property unless yes passed out or intentionally. Anne Heche had just talked to security man, was in adrenaline of running and she passed out? When you make a mistake like hitting property and on DUI its possible to run, because you think who you are and what your life it's going to be if police arrests you. I believe she decided to end it. We don't know if she did Fentanyl. When you drink on cocaine actually it sobers you up, not make you go to sleep. Anne Heche paid with her life. As for the renter, she will be compasseted 2x whatever she owed, house too, plus Anne Heche was a millionaire, not to mention the go fund me done. Stop judging her, the woman paid with her life and her children will suffer. She had a horrible past, plus brother committed suicide. Anne Heche was only 53. My condolences for her family.
Thank you guys for this conversation, the destructions that was left behind.
I also have complicated feelings and that bothers me so I will simply say my condolences to her children 🕊
😪💔
people everyday have issues, mentally and physically. She had a very difficult and troubled life, but she also had many many more wonderful times and was a good actress. Yes, she made a terrible decision that day and nobody will know what drove her to that decision, but to be nasty and mean with comments and speculation is a terrible thing to do. Let’s have respect for a fellow human being that unfortunately made a bad decision that ended up ending her life. Thank goodness nobody else was hurt, but let’s remember, she wasn’t a mean person that would purposefully try to hurt anyone. May she be at peace and prayers going out to her family.
@@barbarawebster9786 agree, as well she was a mother to 2 boys who are going to miss her tremendously.
Excellent statement!
At first, I was frustrated about Anne’s actions because she could’ve easily hurt more people. I was blaming, shaming, and condemning her. Now, after hearing she’s not surviving, I am ashamed for my premature judgments. I realize it’s just a TERRIBLE, unfortunate situation all around. The demons in her have been brewing for years, maybe decades…and she lost to it. Now, no one wins, no arguments are better than the other. Just like I feel about Will Smith, Anne had a lot more complexity in her life than I have. So who am I to judge? Just sad for everyone, hope we can all learn from this tragic event.
Her organs may not be viable for several reasons: cocaine and other drug use present in organs; poor perfusion of organs with blood, due to lung damage from heat and decreased oxygenation, making organs not able to function properly; and physical trauma to organs during crash. Some Harvested organs are corneas, heart, liver, lungs, and skin. Many of which were damaged by the fire or from her substance use. Unfortunately they may not be able to be used as she would have wanted. RIP and condolences to the family
Good point
Throw the organs in the trash!
Yes and I only hope if I would ever need an organ transplant, it would not be one from an addict!
I was waiting for someone to say THE TRUTH
Thank you Pam. Completely agree with you.
I love that she addressed it that way, and we need to think also of the lady who lived in that home, and the trauma she must be enduring right now.
Lost respect for Dr. Drew a long time ago but thought I’d give him another chance. He really missed the the part of the story of Anne Heche crashing into a garage before the crash into the apartment. She backed off and sped away- unconscious people are not able to do that. Also claiming in couldn’t have been a deliberate suicidal act because of the drugs in her system and because there was no fanfare is ridiculous. Will not listen to anything he has to say.
Maybe she was in and out. She did shock the paramedics by sitting up on the gerney on way to ambulance. I saw it on film. She mignt have been trying to get help or she wss just a suicidal maniac.
Totally agree. She could never have driven that straight and fast if passed out.
Did they check the accelerator pedal ?
Anne Heche Latest- Reporter- "Her rep has released a statement saying she is brain dead which in California means you're a registered Democrat"
I've never heard of him, but I have to agree with you. He made out that Anne Heche took the fentanyl herself. This is not known. The fentanyl could have been given on admission at the hospital, after the accident. Additional tests were being run to determine when the fentanyl got in her system.
He also assumed that the anoxic brain injury was due to drugs. This had been reported elsewhere as a result of the smoke inhalation reducing oxygen to her brain.
He comes across as someone who is more interested in sensationalism rather than truth.
I thought she was driving fast because of her hit and run just before the fiery wreck. Maybe she felt someone was in pursuit. It is my understanding that a security guard tried to get her to stop when she hit that garage. My son died tragically one year ago next week. Brain dead, donated organs saving 5 lives. Rest In Peace Ann. Prayers for the family.
Lisa Gunnison I can feel your pain as a mother. Thoughts from Canada
She was on drugs
God bless your son Lisa. Saving 5 lives keeps him an angel in heaven
I'm so so sorry for the pain you have and likely still go through. I hope you get through next week as well as you can.
So Sorry for your loss!
The Lady who lost her house will never be able to sleep or live in peace. She will always have that fear that a car could come crashing into her house. Now that Anne Heche lost her life, it must be more traumatising because she technically lost her life in her house. To all the people affected by this I'm so sorry for them. I pray God walks this journey with them.
Insurance replaces with new Better house!
Well said
@@edwinawilliams6976 too bad it wasn't your house...
Yes probably will have PTSD but luckily she was renting and can move. The house will have structural issues until repaired. She lost a ton of property too😢
Great comment!
Rest in Peace, Anne! No more suffering! ❤🙏❤ to family and friends❤
I'm a recovering alcoholic and two-time convicted drunk driver (now sober 9 years). It's very sad that Anne's demons were hard to keep at bay, and my sympathies go to all who loved her. The problem with drugs/alcohol is that the frontal lobe, our "brakes" to bad ideas, get numbed with substances. The decision to get into the car and drive like hell seems just fine in the moment. Of course it isn't, and tragedy happens. I'm still surprised I'm alive AND especially that I didn't injure someone else (or worse). This is just an incredibly sad story.
Josi, Well put, thank you for your perspective. Both addiction and mental health are so misunderstood & stigmatized bc of it. People aren't evil, they're human & make mistakes, sometimes bad choices. The end result (like addiction & thus involuntary neurological changes) may seem like a choice that people want to blame, although it's actually more complicated. Many are missing that fact in their anger & judgement. Congrats on your choice & commitment to get sober. You paid your dues & will hopefully educate & inspire others. 🙏👊🤍
Addiction.
Those that think it’s disgusting for someone to be an addict and do these things: I hope you never have that pain that can only be escaped with drugs.
Anne survived child abuse. That should tell you everything. Not everyone escapes that in tact. You can’t.
One of my best friends committed suicide July 1. Sexually abused as a child in the foster care system. Battled addiction all her life. Got sober for years, but relapsed after hubby died year before the pandemic. Then pandemic hit. That was the last straw.
Makes me sad to see some of these comments.
I'm very glad that you have moved on
Anne I don't believe that morning was suicidal but she could have gotten something that had fentanyl but I don't think it was on purpose. It's a heartbreaking story. Anne didn't die in vein she taught a lot of people a lot of lessons about addiction, depression etc. but she was here I believe to teach us all a lesson. R.I.P. Anne and God Bless You
Thank you, Dr.Drew! Well said! I have suffered severe depression for decades, & I choose to get help & HELP in my mental health issues.
Rest Easy, Anne. You're loved. You were a beautiful person regardless of what they say. You were beautiful and kind.
she nearly killed a family and took their house, shes awful
@@Jordan-vx2ly She is gone.Please,just give some respect to her and her children.
@@Jordan-vx2ly thats very rude as they stated she could have been passed out ..Yes it was wrong to be behind the wheel but show some respect a house can be replaced a like can't....
@Kipper Knickerz not hard to be classy when what you respect is a dead dui suspect who totaled a families home, dear.
@Kipper Knickerz we got 78 years left. we dont have time for classy. start labeling people who almost killed themselves and others while driving dui what they are. stupid, selfish.
Thank You for speaking so honestly about the circumstances pertaining to what could have been truly going on with her and the situation at hand. To be honest I wish she would've checked herself into rehab and gotten the help that she obviously needed. She would have been a great inspiration for people to live the sober life. I especially feel sad for her two sons 🥀 . Please to anyone who is reading this if you have a substance abuse issue reach out and get the help that you need 🙏 .
I liked that they discussed ALL the perspectives of this situation.
Actually, Pinsky, people don't usually create a lot of fanfare when they suicide. 80% don't even leave a note.
I was surprised at that comment too... Not everyone who commits suicide is a drama queen about it.. a lot of families have an incredibly difficult time with the grieving process simply because they have no answers, their loved one's suicide is a complete mystery, which is extra devastating.
I knew 4 people that committed suicide, including my uncle, and none of them left notes. And in all 4 cases it was definitely suicide.
yeah, pretty weird statement from the doc
More often than not suicide occurs when one's brain functioning is fatal and the suicide can happen so impulsively, there is no time to leave a note. Thank you for this comment.
Exactly. What he should have said is that cocaine is a stimulant, so someone is unlikely to commit suicide while intoxicated on that (unless either crashing after a heavy dose, or choosing to deliberately take enough to kill an elephant).
I've had relatives pass away and from what I've been told by other relatives who witnessed the passing, they've told me that the person will sit up and say something. When Ms Heche sat up before they put her in the ambulance that's the moment she passed. The public will never know exactly what happened but please remember her for the talented and beautiful soul she was!
R.I.P. Ms Heche, my condolences to her family and friends
Why isn't anyone asking the question as to how she sat up before she was placed in the ambulance? That would be the first thing I would ask Dr. Drew.......
@@lindaegert552 I agree and it was her brain that was dead and they didn't know the extent of her injuries other than obvious burns. So they got her heart beating again to keep her on life support just because she's an organ donor? I am confused. And why wasn't oxygen administered instantly even before they loaded her up?
My grandmother did that as she passed according to a relative.
That makes no sense
@@lindaegert552 I had a friend in the ICU who was in a coma from a gun shot to the head. He suddenly sat straight up and coughed blood all over the room and looked at me and smirked and flopped back down on the bed, he died 3 days later from brain injury, having never regained consciousness. Your body can react to trauma in very strange ways.
I think she was intoxicated at the scene of the first crash site, it was filmed. She then drove away from the first crash as fast as she could, lost control and crashed second time.
wow! the panelists in the video are really asking excellent questions! thank you.
I was diagnosed with severe depression and anxiety disorder since 11 years ago. Feel good moments are rare but I have them. I think of suicide very often to finally get over these illnesses once and for all. I never thought of taking anyone with me to my death.
Are you in the us? I would change your diet!!! get some Excercise! stay from bad news! visit patients in hopital who are doing better then you.
Sandlin I am sorry to hear that you are struggling with a disorder. Please don't give up. Praying that you will be healed and have peace. 💕
@@climeaware4814 thanks for the advice
@@ltilley7343 thank you for the prayers
Dear Sands, you might want to look into Ketamine or Ayowashka as a relief from your depression..they both can work wonders,,,xoxo
I am happy that poor woman in the house didn't get killed
I feel so deeply sorry for her dearly loved sons, who have lost their beloved Mother.
🌹 RIP, ANN 🌹
🙏
I'm so sorry for her because she really needed help. I also feel sorry for her family, I can't imagine what they're going through right now. A tragic end to a talented, and loving person. 💙
Such a sad and tragic ending to Anne Heche's life. I would like to hear from a medical doctor, how she sat up all of a sudden right before they put her in the stretcher. Eeerily that was the last time the public(most of us) saw her.
That was absolutely eerie.
That looked like posturing which are movements that happen as neurons die. Notice how she bent over very suddenly and her hands were floppy while her chin was to her chest. I could absolutely be incorrect but that’s what I took from the footage all over the internet.
Tina, I know. I felt same seeing her sit up like that. I feel like she must have been in agony to get up that way. Trying to keep her in a positive light. May she rest in peace 🕊️ Prayers for family, sons, the lady in house that survived.
@@codename495 It was devastating. I'll have that image with me for a long time. May she RIP 🕊️
I agree, as well, that was extremely eerie - but probably involuntary now the more we here about this horrific car crash and the drugs that were in her system. The whole situation is extremely disturbing and heartbreaking for the two sons she left behind. May Anne find peace on the otherside which seemed to escape her in this lifetime ... 🕊️
There isn’t anything complicated about it. It’s okay to have several emotions about her running into the home and endangering that family and happy the are unharmed during the incident. Also to be saddened and mournful about Anne Hecht’s death. Condolence to her family.
except the family lost their home....imagine precious photos, burned up, family heirlooms you cannot replace. They were harmed, just not with their lives.
@@gerryhatrick6678Another emotion as well. I am aware of that, things can be replaced, not a life so again they were unharmed physically and replacing items, cars and homes are a pain after damages can be a long process as well. My prayers go out to them as well.
Yes at least nobody else was hurt… that’s a blessing. Her family wont have that additional burden to bear
Woman and dogs need help, Anne dead gone fore ever
She made the choice to get behind the wheel under the influence. I'm thankful she didn't hurt anyone else with the choices she made.
Condolences to her family.
I've said this elsewhere and I'll say it again: We don't know the truth of what actually happened, we only know what we've been told which is unfortunately always suspect, especially related to Hollywood. We've been repeatedly fed a story involving drinking/drugs/mental illness/organ donation/brain death/horrific burns and what a horrible selfish person Anne Heche was. Does anybody here know her? I don't. Have you seen the verified video of her being taken to the ambulance on a gurney, covered with a sheet which she suddenly throws off, sitting up and reaching to free her feet, her hair and clothing intact with no visible burns, when an ambulance person shoves her into the ambulance? It's profoundly chilling. There was no alcohol in her system and drugs are easily planted. She is very possibly a victim and not a perpetrator. Don't believe everything you hear.
@@lisas8975
I don't believe everything I hear. I saw the car going 95 miles an hour down a street in a neighborhood!! That right there is enough. She put lives in danger just by driving so rightlessly. I could care less what she had in her system. I will say it again...I'm just glad she didn't hurt anyone else.
@@chickiek8011 I wasn't speaking to you specifically, rather, everyone. Yes, I saw the speeding video, undeniable. I've also read the careful observations of a number of reputable people and so much doesn't add up. It is considered within the realm of possibility that her car was hacked - a reality for many years - and she had no control over the speed. Given her upcoming movie on child trafficking, she was possibly marked as a troublemaker as so many others have been, if you get my inference.
@@lisas8975 Thank you for the clarification. Sadly, I do understand your inference.
@@chickiek8011 Much appreciated.
Anne was a great actress & I loved her in many movies. I also loved her honesty about mental health. She admitted she had issues (very much coming from childhood abuse & trauma)& anyone who watches her tv show in the last few months can clearly see her unwinding either heavily influenced by drugs or just manic. Wish someone had helped her more, long before the end. RIP Anne ❤
So, so very sorry for Anne. I’m from a mentally ill family and know about depression and other forms of the illnesses. We need to get more mental health awareness. I praise Jesus I don’t do drugs or drinking. Let this be the shout out for help with these things. My prayers are with her family and friends.
Praise yourself...
Mary ignore my Facebook name for a moment. I am researching disease and long term and short term death. I am learned a great deal about how our life style and mental health DO affect how long we live before disease sets in and how long or short, we actually live. If you have not heard about Telemeres that are on the end of DNA chains read up on it. Can I ask the relatives who suffered from depression did they suffer from obesity?how long did they live?
Depression and mental illness go hand in hand and is definitely genetic in a high number of cases.
She was doing drug not mental illness.
💜
So sorry for her family ! Hugs her struggles were real i hope she has found peace praying for the family
Wow! Way to make it about you all.
She was a human being and a great actress. Whatever her issues, I hope she rests in peace and I hope her family finds peace.
So sorry for the FAMILY and friends. Prayers for FAMILY and friends.
Whatever the reasons for her being killed as the result of the crash thankfully no one else was injured.
She wasnt "killed", she was under the influence of drugs combined with mental illness.
I think there were 3 victims in this careless crash. 1-the careless driver, 2- the house resident,3- the landlord. 1- died,2-lost all she worked for in life ,to no fault of her own, 3- lost a house that provided her with income, to no fault of her own.
One irresponsible drug addict can destroy his/her life and destroy those around them too.
I totally agree with Dr Drew. You have to seek help & be willing to receive it. God bless her soul.
Bless her family and friends, so sad that she did not get the help for her addictions! RIP Anne
Great explanation Dr Drew. Sending good thoughts to her sons and family. RIP Anne
Deeply sorry to hear her passing 😢. I pray she is in peace. Anne Heche was a good actress, always remembered her on Another World, portraying twins Vicki and Marley Love. Thoughts and prayers to her family and friends.
Yes, I watched Another World as well. She was my favorite of the 3 actresses who portrayed Vicki and Marley. So sad.
@@janettamcgee8124 Yes, she was great at portraying contrasting roles, Vicki, the good twin, and Marley, the evil twin.
I thought she was the BEST soap actresses.
They are doing a rerun of Another World. I've been watching some of it. She was a beautiful woman.
Stop all the rumors and let her rest in peace. Think of her sons and they are grieving.
On the contrary, people need to highlight the sheer stupidity of her actions if it could possibly prevent just one idiot from doing the same thing.
@@mfoco1 no it truly won't it has never been a deterrent
@@mfoco1 I doubt it will prevent anything!
@@majbrittcastrupjrgensen2874 I know. But what's the alternative? Burying our heads in the sand doesn't seem to work.
@@mfoco1 as long as drugs are for sale and easy to get on the streets, I think it will go on and here where I live, jail time for selling drugs is a joke!At the same time, nothing or not enough is being done to help people with problems. Politicians close their eyes and are leading wars in their greed for power. Imagine all that money used to help people instead… I live in Denmark and we once had a great welfare system, but it has been cut to the bone, because of more help to third world countries, refugees, migrants, wars etc. Not even soldiers with PTSD can get the proper help.
It’s just sad all the way around. Such a blessing no one else was hurt or killed...
A sad story. It is heartbreaking how she suffered. May she RIP!
I can't believe how people are treating Anne death people are so insensitive...Anne Heche lost her life. R.i.p Anne Heche
And why? I have parents who are like this they make yo live so bad with trauma and everything karma is hard
The fact that she suffered such injuries and passed is a shame, condolences to her family. The fact that she didn't kill anyone else was a miracle. The fact that she was driving at all, let alone at such speed, was an absolute disgrace.
So with death, you are forgiven for endangering others? What she did was stupid and selfish, she thought of no one else but herself. She had many chances to change her life, and definitely had the financial resources to go to the best doctors and institutes. I am sure she had many around her that only enabled her too, such is the lifestyle of celebrities. I feel for her sons, they lost their mother and that is a terrible pain. I don’t have much sympathy for her though. I hope she mad peace with whatever God she trusted.
@@crazymoparguy5920 I wonder if she had many people over the years that really made an effort to help her and then, just gave up? I tried the last 3 years to help a friend and just got burned out, seriously exhausted

Dr. Drew mentioned it's unfortunate the laws prevent us from stepping in and doing something about addicts. YES IT IS. People get on a path of severe self destruction and we - their family, friends, loved ones, people who CARE - feel so bloody helpless. I lost my mother to alcoholism. It was hideous and sad. She never met my kids. I've needed and missed her for the past 25 years.
When I see Anne Heche videos where she's slurring, etc, I just want to hug her and pull her to rehab and not just dry her out but get her the psychological help she needs to exorcise her demons. So many people need that... and deserve it. I am so sad she died. So sad for her sons and anyone who cared about her.
So sorry you lost your mom. You have such a kind heart.
I don't understand. If she was doing coke she may not have known it was cut w fentanyl. You can't just do random drugs anymore bc you don't know what they're cut with. But then if fentanyl was in her system can she still donate organs? It was also said she was drinking? Why did she sit up on the gurney b4 they put her in ambulance? And why would the put her in a coma w fentanyl in her system?
@@stj971 it is a reflex that happens when you die
@@stj971 To keep you "comfortably" 😒 on a vent(breathing) machine they (have to) sedate you.
When she sat up on the gurney we dont know her brain function level. Like others said it was likely reflex. My guess is she passed out in the car, possibly before the crash/fire or during.
She breifly had some level of awareness/ reflex even consciousness and or woke up trying to 'escape' the fire.
They are sensationalizing the fentanyl but it could've been tiny amount. Enough to impair her, but not knock her out or interfere with the vent sedatives(paralytics).
I don’t understand why California made it a law NOT to do an intervention with people who are addicted! That’s insane to me!
So sorry for this loss and prayers for her family!
Relief she didn’t kill anyone else! Godspeed to the Heche family and loved ones. RIP
I’m so thankful for this crew. They are speaking honestly, no other media outlet has done that. I too feel mixed emotions. I’m angry as hell she got into a car and drove while intoxicated! I’ve received awful comments for stating that, but no one has the right to put others in danger!!!! Then, I feel sad. Sad she never got help, for herself and her sons. Her sons are now lost in a whirlwind of agonizing emotions. How is that fair to them when this was a million percent preventable. They love and needed their mom. I hope she’s found peace in Heaven. I hope others realize they need to have value for other lives and CALL FOR A RIDE!!!!
I agree with you. She had the means to get help and didn’t. Anne Heche was responsible for her own recovery but did not take action. She had no right to risk someone else’s safety. She obliterated an innocent family’s home and wiped out their memories.
Have to be born again to go to heaven.
@@canaja37 Well, considering there is no evidence of heaven, we really don't need to be concerned with that.
Very well said.
The trouble is that once someone gets to a certain point of intoxication, they no longer know what they are doing. I know someone who has driven drunk a couple of times and didn't even remember it the next day because they were so drunk they didn't even realize they were doing it and they HATE drunk drivers and would never do that otherwise. They won't even drive after one beer normally. They decided to quit drinking because of it because they were so afraid they would hurt someone else and not even realize it. Too bad more people won't do that once they realize what it has made them do.
That's why some people don't call for rides, because they are so impaired they don't even think of it. And of course some other people think they are fine because they aren't "very" impaired in their minds. Those are the ones who truly make me angry as heck because they DO know what they are doing and just don't care.
Thank you for approaching this is such a balanced and sensitive way. I see so many just saying that they have no sympathy for her, and though I understand that thinking, you can't sum up someone's entire life in a brief moment in time when they have made a very poor choice. Your anchor saying that she has very complicated feelings, that's exactly how many of us are feeling. Quite honestly, until this story came out, I don't think I really had ever knew who she was, my husband says that we saw her in one movie, but I don't really remember her. My condolences to her family and friends whom I'm sure will have many conflicting feelings as well, and empathy to all the woman whose house as destroyed as well as all the EMTs and medical professionals that responded to this situation.
j d: you are one of the rare persons to mention all the EMTs and medical professionals - they deserve so much credit for their unselfish service - they truly do - thank you!!!!
This is a tragic thing and we should all respect her and her family’s privacy… I’m sending my prayers and love to her and her family and friends…🙏🏻💙🙏🏻💙
Really appreciate this honest conversation.
Sleep peacefully Anne ♥️🕊🕊🕊 My heart goes out to her children and loved ones
It’s just very sad, no one chooses to be an addict , the blessing is no one else was hurt. No point in blaming her , she just didn’t receive the help she needed for whatever reason, condolences to her loved ones.
Your absolutely right!! I also hope through this tragic situation for all that it will bring more awareness about mental illness and drugs and alcohol use. Shaming and bulling on all forms of social media doesn’t help! People need more free dialogue to feel safe to get the help they need with whatever issues. Everyone has Mental Health. It shouldn’t be a dirty word. Prayers for all involved!♥️
Anne Heche is not the victim, she's the culprit.
this is so sad on so many levels. the 2 boys who lost their mom. the woman who lost her home and her belongings. i feel sad for anne but i also feel mad at her for doing this to her kids and this woman. there are so many levels to this. it's just heartbreaking.
We love you girl so much. You are in a better place. This life on earth is so hard because people wont to judge your every move but they dont wont anybody to know there moves.Just dont understand.Hope and pray her sons are ok.
I can clearly understand why you feel as you do. Everyone doesn't JUDGE, just there's so many people that feel SO UNCOMFORTABLE in THEIR OWN SKIN that they enjoy trying to make you feel like your a BIG NOBODY. DON'T LET THEM SUCCEED! Please Love who YOU ARE! BECAUSE YOU ARE WONDERFUL AND UNQUE. I believe Anne had a beautiful and gentle heart and her son's need everyone's prayer and I mean no meanness, just FEELING OF LOVE FOR HER LIFE AND FAMIY.
She’s not in a better place ! She’s dead her sons miss her terribly it’s very sad who knows what the afterlife holds or even if there is one ??? She might be in her box under the ground in darkness is that a better place ? None of us know what lies after life x
Take it from me....the current and abhorrent state of our morally impaired society, makes it very hard to be suffering from mental health issues. The lack of EMPATHY I've seen about this situation is astounding...
@@deerheart87 read the Bible. It can help you understand.
Love Dr. Drew’s perspective on things!!!
Her brother crashed his car and died many years ago. She thought it was a suicide attempt. That trauma stays with you. That is why I believe it may have been her own attempt.
I agree. I think it was on purpose.
100 percent. I think she was depressed and wanted to go out the same way. I knew someone that was addicted to cocaine, and she said that cocaine addicts either become homicidal or suicidal if they don’t get free from it. I heard Anne was driving at 90 miles per hour at impact (through a residential neighborhood). That is suicidal driving in my opinion.
Exactly!!!
@@shalom968 I think the car , after the first hit into a garage, drop something because it had a loud sound like brakes damage, and she was so scared that panic, how could the car pass the front yard and in a little space with no damage or gasoline on ithe floor, mini cooper are electric system?'
Blessings and condolences to her sons and all involved
So sad
Love Australia
Prayers ❤ to her children 🙏 May she rest in peace. This was so preventable.
Blah blah blah
She had visited a salon 20 minutes before the crash , the salon owner said she was very pleasant, also 2 neighbors who tried to help her after the crash said she answered their questions. They let her know help was coming and she said ok.
yeah i agree with this, i dont think that he had all of the facts. also the horrible footage of her flailing around on the stretcher screaming.
@@timetraveler6977 Anne was still alive enough after 1 hour in a burning car.
Something fishy about this whole thing. Interesting this happened right before her sex trafficking movie is about to air. She hit a garage or storage unit before the deadly crash. A guy was trying to tell her to get out of the car. Where did he disappear to? Why isn't he being interviewed? Then she buys a wig and the guy says she seemed fine. Suicide my ass. Oh and don't ever be an organ donor. The second hospitals see that they don't try hard to save you!
@@mygypseasoul I agree with you 100 percent. And I still don't understand why those rescuers put her under that sheet like she was already dead.
@@alindera I don't think we were supposed to see her flying up like that. They probably wanted to say she died at the scene. I would think they would put an oxygen mask on her vs covering her head. We live in a movie! So bizarre
Rest in peace Anne. I'm praying for you and your family and friends 🙏
Breaks my heart for her kid. RIP Anne
Love Dr drew he is so right on. I wish they wd bring back his show with “average” ppl not celebrities. He is the BEST! Thx fr ur sharp perception abt Anne. So sorry 😢
So glad they encouraged viewers to check out dr Drew’s other platforms. Dr drew after dark is so informative. He really touched my camera through the fence.
I lost my son 5 years ago, he relapsed with cocaine, that was laced with fentanyl. Fentanyl Homicide.
Very sorry for your loss, a pain that never heals. Ty for sharing.
Sorry for your loss!
It's so very sad sending my deepest condolences to her family
Thank God no one in the home or on the street was killed. Prayers up for her sons.
Can organs be donated from a person who has had such hard drug use?
And who also inhaled all that toxic smoke for what some have said was an hour?
Great question.
She went without oxygen so how would her organs be any good ?
they can evaluate and decide if the damage is still there or if she had healed. The toxic fumes she inhaled while burning in that car for almost an hour , certainly are in her body and that is their concern and not her past history.
The liver is probably toast but kidneys ,eyes,lungs probably ok
This is sooo sad .may she rip. My prayers go out to her loved ones
She was trying to get away from the first accident, she knew what she was doing putting innocent people at risk.
…and almost took out a pedestrian!
Totally agree
I can't help but think Ann was attempting to quickly escape from hitting the garage maybe trying to avoid a DUI.
May she RIP! Condolences to her 2 sons!🙏
This is sad in so many ways! No one stop or help her with her addiction or the fact that she had mental health issues. This case is so heart breaking. I am grieved for her family for their loss. I am sorry for the woman who lost everything, and glad she was not killed. All the way around this is a horrible ordeal, 😪 Ann was in pain and I believe self medicating and that is so terribly sad. Rest in Peace 🙏
People actually did try and help her, she also saw therapists for yrs. Bottom line, unless you admit you have a problem no one can help you.
Very sad to hear of this. Thank you for your gift to us. Sometimes life is full of pain. Let's lift up each other. Hold hands.
Anne spoke to the neighbour who tried to get her out of the car, she was conscious and responded to him.
But then she sat in an oven for an hr
@@PInk77W1 Wrong, she did not talk to him.
@@gsdmomb530 I didn’t say she did
@@PInk77W1 no shit? I'm responding to the comment that if she was on Fentanyl she'd be out of it.
Don't warp what I've commented, you smartarse.
@@gsdmomb530 you got the wrong person. I saw the interview with the neighbour, you clearly did not.
Thank god no one else was hurt physically. Anne, unfortunately, had been spiraling for years. She was a difficult person to control from what I've seen on various interviews. A whirlwind really. I agree with Drew that she was intoxicated terribly behind the wheel, and most certainly may have stopped breathing near or at the crash moment. I'm watching an old film or two with her, and she was very talented. RIP.
That's what alcohol and drugs does, she knew better
@@bmarie8965 She didn't know about the fentanyl.
I hope she is in a better happier more loving place! I’m so sorry for her boys family and friends….rip finally Anne.
R.I.P. AH! Praying for the kids & family.
I feel so many different emotions. Maybe she didn't know she had consumed fentynal laced narcotics. We have a plague of laced recreational drugs in our country. Very complicated, very sad, tragic all around. Thankful the lady in the house is alive. Rest in peace Anne Heche 🙏 We will remember your light.
Thank you for the common sense
She might overdosed on that damned fentanyl, respiratory arrest n passed out in car….😞 she might have not even know she hit that home. Who knows?
Drugs whether they are legal or not, kill people!
And our borders are wide open n the fentAnyl still is pouring in.
Dr Drew is right. You make the circumstances u pay the consequences.
Only God knows exactly what happened n as human beings we can only assume. So sad.
the governments are the ones who have been lacing street drugs with fentynal it is their way of eliminating society's "undesirables" instead of housing them in prisons or saving them in hospitals from overdosing. The potency of fentynal is only possible with government sponsored chemical engineers who have developed this synthetic opioide better known as fentynal..yes that's right you're government doesn't give a shit about you or I or anyone else.
Oh please she chose to take drugs.She chose to get behind that wheel.Stop trying to justify drivers under the influence. HER chose cost her her life and could have cost others their lives too
Apparently she was having a bad day and was not able to control what was going on. The drug fentanyl is being mixed into other drugs without people knowing what they are taking. It is taking thousands of lives on a daily basis and our government Keeps the gate open for the cartels to deliver into our country.It’s a clear picture if you have any common sense to see what’s going on
@5:10 Dr. Drew is suggested she died from a fentanyl overdose when she crashed. If you watch the helicopter video, Anne sat up just before entering the ambulance. Also, from the police scanners, the paramedic where speaking to Anne while they were removing her from the vehicle. Need to check with the hospital to see if they gave her fentanyl for the pain she would have been in from the burns. In Addition, from the home video camera you could see her car speeding down the road with what sounded like metal or load brakes noise. The vehicle could have sustained damage from the prior accident when the car hit the garage. There is a video of the accident at a apartment/Condo where she hit a garage and speed off. Maybe when there are more reports from investigator Dr. Drew can come back for an interview. Suggesting suicide is just adding to the drama.
There was no damage to the vehicle when she hit the garage.
The noise that you described as brake noise, was just the sound of her car flying by at 90 miles an hour.
@@beckigreen Agree it hard to hear from the video if the sound was something other than metal noise.
hmm, perhaps, this is the begining of Zombie Apocalypse. After Corona Virus and Monkey Pox virus, this would be the third and final blow.
If you die as a result of taking drugs and driving you have effectively committed suicide.
I constantly say that we have to be very careful about ANYTHING we ingest. Do not plow down as many hotdogs as you can eat, do not shove down pies in a pie eating contest, do not drink alcohol in a funny game with friends, and do not eat or drink anything that is not created by trusted people. Stay very clean with what and how much of something goes inside your body. If not, you could end up killing other people. Or yourself.
My heart goes out to her family and friends. I am a recovering alcoholic and drug addict who suffers from Mental Health. I have Bipolar and other things but I am blessed I was able to see I needed help, and my children were able to grow up with a sober Mother.
EXCELLENT DISCUSSION!!!
Honest!!! Timely!! Necessary!!! Crucial!!!
Sadly, some people have been broken so many times there isn't enough glue in the world to mend them. Anne dealt with things no one on this panel can fathom, "from her father."
You are speculating about something that can never be determined making the grieving process worse for her remaining family and friends.
Yes I agree 👍
Excellent post and reminder. Thank you.
Very true Appalachain...people should just be quiet sometimes.
People are just evil.
RIP Anne and prayers for her children
Hi 👋how are you doing?
It is really sad that her children are losing their Mum. It is sad that family members will lose a loved one and my deepest condolences to the family but thank heavens there wasn't any innocents tragically taken due to this incident.
My heart also goes out to the family who are now homeless brought about by the crash
I hope you find peace Anne, God rest your soul 💔
I love how this guy has made himself an expert on Heche’s unique substance issues. He’s decided that she willingly took fentanyl when the blood was taken in the ER and she very well could have received fentanyl on the scene to sedate her or on the way in to treat pain. Heche was conscious and speaking at the scene, so take what people Drew says with a grain of salt. Drew didn’t treat Heche and he doesn’t have special insight into what happened.
That will come later if (when) somebody makes money on a book. And oh, by the way, most suicides do NOT include a note.
She was doing cocaine and you don’t get that messed up on cocaine to where you’re slurring your words because it’s a stimulant. When she hit the first residential garage and the security guard was asking her to get out of her car she couldn’t even speak coherently and said I’m out of here. She had every opportunity to stop right there, But decided to run from that accident as to not get caught because she was intoxicated. She caused her own accident.
I agree. Fentanyl is also showing up in every street drug in the US, right now…including marijuana.
drDrew ,how cold was he like no empathy ,just his science ...
06:35 “She could have been helped.” Well, she’d had treatment before. Many people leave rehab and then pick up where they left off. If it was so easy, everyone would be sober.
Sadly she herself chose to do cocaine
But, someone somewhere is responsible for introducing Anne to cocaine. It’s not something people just say Oh I want to try that and go to the store and buy it. I’ve never tried it and I hope I never do but I do know it’s probably a thing that is maybe offered from so-called “Friends”. Maybe it gives a good feeling and some people are more easily addicted. It’s probably expensive too, so ordinary or regular working people can’t even afford it. I also think whoever it was that first offered it to Anne knows who they are. Such a shame and such sad outcomes. Poor woman! RIP 🪦
@@holidays4825 Actually there are a lot of people who say, "Hey I want to try drugs. Sounds like fun." And they proceed to seek out the drugs. I once worked with a former drug dealer of many years. He said a lot of people do drugs because they want to. It is a choice they make. There were many people he tried to sell to that told him go f.........k off and refused to speak with him. And most people who are 'talked' into trying it really try it because they really want to and just need someone else telling them to do it to make them feel better about doing it. He believed the only real victims of drugs were the ones who had drugs slipped to them in food, drink or through prescription meds. When it is slipped to you, you take it unknowingly. Prescription meds are just a mess. You have a doctor giving it to you because you really need it, but neither he nor you can know ahead of time if your system can take it or if you will succumb to it. I personally have no empathy for Anne. She was a celebrity, wealthy, and most importantly a mother of two sons. Her sons should have been the rock to anchor her to earth and get her through any rough times. I cannot think much good about a person who chooses drugs over their children. These people are selfish. I, personally, knew a young woman with 2 very young daughters of the ages 5 and 7. She committed suicide by cutting her wrists. She left those 2 girls. And what came of them? They learned what their mother did, and it messed them up. They both became drug addicts and one prostituted herself for the drugs and the other has been missing for several years now. They both burned through any inheritance as soon as they became of legal age. Very loving family took care of the girls but lost all control one they became adults. This is the legacy selfish people leave.
@@reesaserik3759 ~~ I know all you speak of yet it’s still a sad thing to happen. What you didn’t address is the fact that some people are certainly weaker than others regarding becoming addicted. A big draw is the curiosity and desire to simply see what it’s all about and that’s so sad. I will never believe that average intelligent people simply say, “I want to become addicted”. Same for being gay; I don’t believe anyone is born gay. What I can’t figure out is how in the world a man or a woman can take that first step to actually have sex with their own sex; that makes me sick more even than drug addiction. Too many wacko people around today and I believe Christ will return soon.
Great discussion. This is VERY Complex! I had a celeb crush on her when i was a teen after seeing I know what you did last summer. She was soo cute and silly. I also was in entertainment in LA many years ago and know how easy it is to get wrapped up in elevated partying. I think many of us are 50/50 on this! Only problem about getting help during addiction is SHE had to ask for help. It seems like at the time she didnt want it and unfortunately bad things can happen.
Prayers go out to her children and Family 🛐✝️💯❣
