and perhaps the drugs and alcohol she self-medicated with
contributed to her death at the relatively young age of 60.

Definitely, in some way.

Despite claims she was "better" now, all her recent interviews still
reeked of her being "on" something.

You would have to check her medical records. If she ate something

Given her history of mental health issued, it'd be very surprsing if
she were *not* on prescription meds of some kind. Biploar, IIRC, most
of her adult life.
