Do you think Hayden Panettiere had any idea she was coming to the end of her life?

This is one think i've always noticed about the under 40 crowd. Their belief that they're invincible. I know she abused substances. I know she knew she had a problem. But do you think it ever REALLY hit herwhere it would eventually end up if she didn't change?

I mean from what i understand if Amy Winehouse, she knew, and she still couldn't change. I don't sense that with Hayden.

Probably yeah. Her personal life was a train wreck. The only good thing she had in her life she screwed up, lost custody of her kid, divorced a good man, had a succession of abusive bad boy boyfriends and spent her 30s trying to rebuild her career and of course the drugs.

My job has afforded me a very unique experience with life and death. I’ve seen a lot of people realize they’re going to die, but only after it’s too late and there is nothing to do to stop it.


Most people, unless they are 70+ still think they are invincible to some degree. The younger the more risky the behavior and lies they think death could knock on their door.

I think people who do that do know. But they can't stop

Knowing all the things that came to light in the wake of this i think she could, she just didn't want to. I think it was her escape, her coping mechanism from whatever she considered in life too difficult to deal with. To me that's not true addiction. That's escapism. You can't fix the problem if you don't want to fix the actuator of it. Just my take.

[RachyRach]

Could be the case. I do think child actors are in the spotlight for so long that they end up looking for an escape.

Hayden might have committed suicide, if this was true, than she chose to end her life!

[Asker]

I suppose that's possible. But from what i understand her life was always a bit chaotic. I mean i'm not hearing anything defining to support that.

[AviatorTom]

We'll never know.

May she rest in peace.

I wouldn't be surprised if she had premonitions that her time was nearly over.

I think she killed herself on purpose.
