Corey Haim Dead in Hollywood Apartment.

I cant say im surprised or shocked by his death. I do love lost boys and will remember him for that and not the drug addled rambling douche he turned into (see image below)

Drugs suspected?

Drugs never fix any problems they just cause more and then they kill you. Why havent these people figured this out yet.

It would have been tragic if he got sober was doing well and then had a heart attack.

What do you think. Are you drug user tolerant/sympathetic?

Ive known so many people who have died from drug use im just not at all anymore.

Former Child Star Corey Haim Found Dead, Drugs Suspected

FOXNews.com

The star of “License to Drive” was 38.

Former teen heartthrob Corey Haim died early Wednesday morning in Los Angeles.

The actor was 38.

The Los Angeles coroner’s office said Haim died at Providence St. Joseph Medical Center in Burbank. The actor was taken by ambulance to the hospital from an apartment in Los Angeles.

The LAPD said his death appeared to be an accidental drug overdose, and an investigation is underway. The coroner’s office said an autopsy will determine the cause of death.

Haim had flulike symptoms before he died and was getting over-the-counter and prescription medications, Police Sgt. William Mann said.

“He could have succumbed to whatever (illness) he had or it could have been drugs. Who knows?” Mann said. “He has had a drug problem in the past.”

A TMZ videographer talked to Haim on February 18 in Hollywood, when he was out at a club with actor and friend Corey Feldman. Haim told TMZ he was “well” and had been sober for some time.

“I’m directing for the first time,” he added. “I’ve got a few things happening.”

Haim’s first role was in the 1984 hit “Firstborn,” in which he played a young child caught up in a family war.

Haim is most famous for his roles in the 1980s films “Lucas” and “The Lost Boys.” Haim and Corey Feldman starred in several popular films together, including “License to Drive” and “Dream a Little Dream,” and became one of the hottest young actor teams in Hollywood.

Haim’s drug use took over his life, however, and helped ruin his career.

“I feel like … I ruined myself [with drugs] to the point where I wasn’t functional enough to work for anybody, even myself,” Haim said in an interview in 2007.

After starring in several direct-to-video films in the 1990s, the actor made a comeback in 2006 in the reality series “The Two Coreys,” again with Corey Feldman.

The successful show lasted two seasons, but Feldman said he refused to do a third season because of Haim’s continued drug use.

Haim went to rehab and said he was sober and ready to work again, even taking out an ad in Variety magazine saying as much.

The actor was involved in several projects at the time of his death, including the film “The Science of Cool” with actress Mischa Barton, due out in 2010, and “The Dead Sea,” which is currently filming.

My parents are recovering cocain addicts and alcoholics, so it's safe to say I've grown up with an addicts life style and understand it very well. I'm only sympathetic to the people I've grown up with in CA and AA meetings who are REALLY trying to get help. Like my mother, she has three years clean and even though it doesn't seem like a lifetime, I'm still incredibly proud of her. My father on the other hand is currently in a Sober Living home and has only a few months clean. I am still proud for him aswell. As they say, one day at a time. I am not sympathetic to the hundreds of teenagers I observe who only see as far as today. They do not understand the EVERYTHING has an effect. I'd love to take every one of those idiots to a recovery meeting. It's a horrible enviorment, filled with people who once thought that nothing could hurt them, that they only live once. Now they're grown men crying to God, pleading to be clean. To be free of it. No one would ever want to touch that filth if they spent just two minutes in that place. Even though I've had a very difficult childhood, I wouldn't take any of it back. Now I know first hand that I will NEVER touch a drug. I am stronger than that.

I watched so many of my friends growing up abuse and die of drugs as well as a few family members, im 100% to support anyone who wants to be helped but the ones who are in denial and dont care i have no sympathy for.
