Heath Ledger's Accidental Death - Authorities ruled his death as an accidental overdose of prescription drugs, including sleep aids, pain meds and anxiety pills.

The way things appear to have played out is really sad.

Ledger had trouble sleeping after filming his Batman movie, so he got a prescription sleep aid. Apparently, he also had an anxiety problem and a respiratory ailment. He got prescriptions to address those issues too. One thing led to another, and he had 6 drugs in his body mixing together and doing bad things to his body. This mixture killed him.

All he wanted was to relax, sleep well and live pain free.

His death is absolutely tragic.
