Mike Starr’s Cause Of Death: Mixing Drugs To Stay Sober?
Former Alice In Chains bassist, Mike Starr, who was found dead in his home on Tuesday (March 8)- more details here-, was reportedly mixing methadone and anxiety medication in a desperate attempt to stay sober.
According to the roommate, Mike had been using methadone and taking medication to control anxiety issues since he was arrested last month (mug shot here). Mike was doing a good job managing his medication, but he might have accidently miscalculated the effects of those drugs when mixed together.
Mike’s roommate said, “Mike was a beautiful person who was fighting to stay sober … I am going to miss him greatly.”
Ironically, Mike was reportedly determined to get clean and start a new life. The official cause of death has not been determined yet, but it will most probably be related to a medication mix up.

Mike, when you left Alice In Chains, the band went to crap. That is a huge testament to your ability and your place in the world and in that band. I am so sorry you died, but thank you for enriching my life through your music and your incredible empathy and humility regarding your friend, Layne. Thank you for being so human.
Your Friend Always,
