He had to. His last infusion was 1.5 weeks prior to he’s death.

This was my first thought, he had been using it to treat depression. Many of his friends and family had said he seemed happier than ever because he had gotten his other addictions under control. Maybe he finally had tackled his depression. I’ve heard of many people micro dosing ketamine as a last resort for severe depression. Sadly his body had been put through so much prior to this so it could have been too much. So sad.
He was using it outside of his scheduled treatments. It’s considered a party drug when abused.

“However, ketamine’s reputation as a “party drug” raises concern. Due to its dissociative effects and ability to produce a sense of euphoria, the substance is often abused recreationally, leading to it being classified as a Schedule III controlled substance by the Controlled Substances Act.”

He had a supervised treatment a couple a weeks before but it’s life span is 3-4 hours so that session is not what caused his death. They don’t know how he got it in his system.

"Without that thing he did that made him famous he wouldn't be famous" is a ridiculous thing to say. He was a big part of peoples' experiences for 10 years. People are allowed to be sad that he is gone. What were you trying to accomplish with this? That people who care would suddenly agree with you? Just stay out of the thread if you don't care about the subject; it isn't that difficult.
Geez internet stranger you are so right. He lived this prolific career on one single sitcom that he barely remembers being in and we should all morn that.
NP. Why don’t you exit this thread if you don’t think people should “morn” [sic] Matthew Perry?
Dp because we all have a right to comment. I think the tributes are going overboard. We are actuallt mourning Chandler Bing who was written as a nice guy rather than Mmatthew Perry a deeply mentally ill person.
If you read his book, he put a lot of Matty into Chandler Bing.
He understood that him dying would be sad, but not a shock. He owns his shit, and he was a shit. Lots of issues stemming from childhood, starting at 6 weeks old (use of drugs to treat colic), that led him to using alcohol early, on top of being an actual addict. You have to think of him as a child actor in the late 80s/early 90s. He was good friends with River Phoenix. Sad, but not shocking that he died alone. His body was so damaged.
How many kids treated for colic end up a significantly heavy drug user? Sounds like he was looking for excuses as to why he had his addiction which leads to the typical “it’s not my fault thus it’s okay to continue use”.
+1 I haven't heard that any medicine used for colic has led to drug abuse. But I also don't think he had a "it's okay to continue use" attitude. I think during his using years he was full of self-loathing, which made it easier to lean into the chemical addiction and lifestyle that supported it. There was no reason to get sober.
I believe on CNN he said to other addicts “It’s a disease, it’s not your fault”.
He didn't believe that, I'm sure. At least not about himself. I wish he had.
Yes he did.

I think he did believe that. His dad was a heavy drinker for awhile, and his step mom had a frank conversation about changing his life. His dad went for a walk, then came home and never drank again. It was that easy. Matthew on the other hand spent over 7 million dollars on rehabs. Not to mention the gigs he didn't get or got fired from. He most certainly wanted to get and stay sober.
