Hanged himself or so I hear. You have to ask yourself why?

Very sad news. A tremendous talent whose passing has left a hole in my heart. Far to young. R.I.P.

sad loss
Very sad......
I was shocked when I heard this news. I am a Chris fan, and I am speechless. It's sad when someone takes their own life"....
His brother posted a very moving tribute on Facebook:
It's been difficult to put words together. My heart is broken. Chris was always just my brother. We just "were". No pretense. No dog and pony show. We didn't have to get deep all the time. Sometimes we only needed to just be in the same room and just be present. That was enough.
It wasn't until this week, it really hit me how he belonged to the world. That he is an icon and a legend. That being said, I am so sorry to YOU for your loss. Artists, actors, musicians. We rely on these people to lift us up. To inspire us and distract us in times of trouble. Chris protected us when we needed him to. His one of a kind-ness surrounded us like a suit of armor. He was a warrior and a wizard. A howling wolf and a trusted mentor.
My brother gave freely of his gifts and it was never a struggle. He kept himself from the saturation of celebrity in such a humble way. The power and anger and passion of my brother's music was always genuine, original and legitimate. He was the powerful, sensitive, fragile, angry, mystical creature that will exist forever in his body of work. And he did it for ALL of us. Giving it away. Leaving all on the stage or in the recordings that will keep him immortal.
I will never wrap my head around his passing. I've been in shock since I heard the news. I can't and won't let him go.
Please know, with all the humility I can muster from the depths of a pulverized heart, I THANK EACH OF YOU for your kindness and condolences. THANK YOU for finding me through YOUR tears.
Hold your brothers close.
Much Love!

CHRIS CORNELL's Wife: 'He Didn't Want To Die'
Vicky believes the drugs in his system significantly altered his state of mind.
"He didn't want to die," she said. "If he was of sound mind, I know he wouldn't have done this."
Addiction psychiatrist Dr. Benjamin Nordstrom told the magazine that it's "hard to overstate how unpredictable the effects of mixing various mind-altering substances can be. Some of these combinations, especially those that involve sedative drugs, can lead to levels of impairment that are far out of proportion to what would have happened if the drugs were taken separately."

Oddly, they have never released publicly what cocktail of drugs were in his system that could alter his mind enough to hang himself.....
