People quotes Barrino from the episode as saying, "I didn't have any fight in me. I didn't care about anything. I just wanted out," says Barrino. "I just sat in the closet and look at the mirror and took all the pills in the bottle. I wanted to go to sleep and just be at peace. I knew exactly what I was doing. You can't accidentally take a whole bottle of pills." more
