Yes! This! I even remember this from my teenager lifeguarding days. It puts stress on the circulatory system. It is also why smaller bodies (children or just petite people) and the elderly are not supposed to go in hot tubs.

(Plus, they are just gross. The heat does not kill the germs. All the bubbles along the edge are frothy skin cell detritus. You are welcome for this PSA.)

And weirdly, I recently rewatched the “Mr. Heckels” episode where Chandler worries that he will end up all alone with no family to mourn him.
I know he had friends, but he also had addictions he could t kick. It’s eerie how, despite his fame and success—Matthew Perry’s world was dark and lonely.

You clearly don’t know his whole story. He’s been in recovery for a while and even turned his Malibu home into a sober living house for other addicts. He was very involved in the recovery community and was an inspiration to others. He’d shared his dark times with the whole world as a gift to help others struggling with addiction know that they are not alone. He was admired by colleagues and beloved by family, friends and fans. That’s hardly a dark and lonely world.

He had a solid relationship with his parents as an older adult, and has a bunch of step siblings, plus a lot of very good, long-time friends. His world was not dark or lonely.

I immediately thought of your post when I saw this.

I did too.

I watched 17 Again, twice this year. Once while doing laundry (because I had seen it before), but my 12yo saw glimpses. When she was free I watched it again, with her.

We bonded over it, and it was a sweet movie. One of my favorites even though it’s not Oscar material. Sweet message, and he was so good in it.

RIP.

Same. I’m in tears.

+1 He was so handsome as a younger guy with a sweet sensitivity. The addiction genes are so unfair and hard to fight.

That is just sad.

Can't be in a pool of water if you are drunk or sleepy.
Hot water will make you more sleepy. I never understand why people sit in a hot tub drinking alcohol.

I'm glad to see that, at least.

Why are some of these celebrity deaths so shocking? 😞

So young.

The Batman signal is a sign of distress? Was Perry sending signs of distress with those Batman wing signals on Instagram?

Very disturbing.

May he rest in peace.

Hate this. I listened to his memoir recently. He was a pretty hard core addict, but the book left you feeling optimistic that he would never stop trying to recover. His description of the physical toll it took on his body was intense. I’m sure his health was fragile at this point even if he wasn’t using. So sad.

Horrible. And one can’t help but wonder- which Friend will be next?

Weirdly, 5 days ago, someone commented "RIP" on his last Instagram post.

I love that movie!
