This is sad news. I had met Anna several times when she peformed at some local strip clubs and she was a real sweatheart. It's always a shame when anyone goes out like this.

That answers a lot of my "whatever happened to" questions.

Whether a bullet, a rope or an accidental(?) overdose; an answer that permanent is the wrong answer.

I'm inclined to think that the adult entertainment industry may have more than it's share of people with emotional issues.  So, sadly, it's not all that surprising to see a higher than average rate of suicide amongst their ranks.  I have to think that their involvement in the adult industry only makes their problems worse and may put them at an increased risk for self-destructive behavior.

It's frankly one of my biggest concerns even being an occasional participant in this hobby. I don't want to be an enabler for some who is already on the ropes emotionally.  It would be better for them to get help and not hide on the fringes of society.

As one who has had a relative commit suicide, I really feel for these people and their families.

I know one famous male porn star and, few months ago, he asked me if I wanted to watch him on cam (a private show just for me) with 3 girls he invited to come to his house.
I had an appointment that night and I told my client that we were going to have "live" porn during our session.
My client was impressed that I knew the guy and I set my laptop next to the bed so we could enjoy.
They all got naked and he was asking us which way we wanted him to fuck those girls.
For a while, we "directed" him. Then, he stopped and said "wait a sec" and then we saw the drugs...heavy shit.  
I didn't know he used drugs, so I was speechless watching them getting high and high.
I had a crush on this guy, we were suppose to meet. But, once I saw how it changed him and how he just forgot the condoms and started to fuck those skanks bareback... well, it just grossed me out.
It was sad to watch. Actually it was kind of revulsing and I told my client that it would be better to turn my computer off and he totally agreed.
I was sleeping, it was around 5 am, when he called me, still very high on whatever shit he took, asking why I shut off our connection,  saying he could not cum and that he needed my help.
We talked for couple hours, well he talked and I listened. What kind of help could  I give to him? None, besides listen to his rants and senseless stuff.
I guess the enviroment they live is destructive. Is very very different from my "world". I love sex but I would never "waste" myself for it.

I read an article on the web by a current male porn star, and he said that most of these people live fast lives, with a lot of drug use.  This guy said they make OK money but they don't plan for life after porn so are frequently doing worse than the average person.  He said only a few make 100K or more a year, so I imagine they make less than escorts on average.  And that unstable environment is tough.  But people also die of these things in any type of work.

One of, if not the strongest natural human drive’s is to copulate.  Orthodox religious dogmas (designed obviously to engineer and control society) have done a great job at proliferating guilt and shame for following that instinct. If a gal is predisposed to sex she is early on labeled a slut, a guy a Satyr or lecher. Dare either sex use their innate instincts to profit by prostitution or porn they will stand to be publicly vilified, demonized, castigated and made a pariah (quite often by the same people who pay for their services and or porno offerings). The many tortured souls who have so sadly pulled their own pin for their “imbalance” may well have not ever gotten near that point of desperation if not for the shear societal hypocrisy causing this imbalance.
