Heath Ledger Drug Addiction?

Question by Jon: Heath Ledger Drug Addiction?
Hi, I have to do a really general report on Heath Ledger’s drug addiction. I can’t seem to find much information about his past concerning drugs since everything online now is about his death due to drugs. I was wondering if anyone could provide me with a website that gives me an overview of his drug use that may answer these questions:

1. What drugs were he addicted to?
2. Overview of addiction (timeline of events)
3. When/how it started (any triggering events)
4. Attempts in quitting?

If you know any information off the top of your head, that would be very helpful as well!

Thank you so much!

You won’t find much online; Heath ledger was extremely private, even more so with his demons and addictions. From what I understand, he always struggled with drugs but his DOC was cocaine, pills and heroin. His addictions were what caused the breakup in his relationship with Michelle Williams, his daughters mother. Other than general info like this though, you won’t find much else.
Good luck with your paper – should’ve chosen someone easier to study, like Lindsay lohan!
