Hollywood star Jim Carrey sent a text message to his ex-girlfriend asking where his missing prescription painkillers were just hours before her lifeless body was found following a massive drug overdose.
According to a bombshell LA Coroner's report - obtained by Daily Mail Online - Cathriona White had taken Carrey's anti-inflammatory pills along with a cocktail of other drugs to end her life.
The Irish beautician and make-up artist was found dead in her rented LA home on September 28 last year after ingesting a cocktail of prescription drugs including Zofran, propranol, Percocet and Ambien.
White, who lived alone at her home on Briarwood Drive in the LA suburb of Sherman Oaks, had broken up with actor Carrey days before.
The report shows that White had told friends prior to her death that she was 'madly in love' with Carrey and that their relationship was a 'rollercoaster'.
It states that she tied her identity to Carrey's and that if she felt he was 'slipping away' from her she would become 'depressed'.
According to the report White's lifeless body was found in her bed dressed in a red T-shirt and black underwear surrounded by prescription bottles. She had a cell phone in her hand.
The pretty brunette had penned a suicide note and a longer letter in the hours before her death and carefully laid out her wishes.
Wrestling with her emotions she left the note and the letter, which she placed in an envelope addressed to 'Jim Carrey co/Nicole (Montez, Carrey's personal assistant)' on the dining room table.
White wrote to the actor: 'I've spent 3 days now in disbelief that you're not here. I can go on brokenhearted and try to put the pieces back. I could, I just don't have the will this time.
'I'm sorry you felt I wasn't there for you. I tried to give you my best part.'
Discussing details of her funeral, she said matter-of-factly: 'I don't really know about burial or that sort of thing. You are my family so whatever you choose will be fine.'
She added, asking for forgiveness: 'Please forgive me. I'm just not for this world.'
White also asked for her belongings to be sold and given to her family.
She signed off the note with 'Dewdrop' - presumably a pet name given to her by Carrey.
Before taking her life, White also carefully packed up items belonging to of her ex-husband, Mark Burton, and marked the box as being his property.
Investigator Kelli Blanchard said in her report that White did not have any other injuries and her body showed early signs of decomposition - suggesting she had been dead for a number of days.
The report states that she had no known mental health issues in the US but that friends said that she did have 'depressive qualities' and may have attempted to overdose on pills around two and half years before.
Friends initially became worried when White, originally from County Tipperary, Ireland, 'signed off' on her Twitter account on September 24, four days before her body was found, and wasn't heard from afterward.
That same day she sent what would be her last text message - a request asking if Carrey was awake, and if so whether he could call her.
White and Carrey had a three-minute FaceTime call a couple of hours later. That was the last activity on her phone.
It appears that following that call White slumped into a deep depression and locked herself away in the home.
In what now seems like a grim warning, an investigator found a text message sent by Carrey the day before White died asking if she knew where his painkillers were, as he couldn't find them under the sink.
It stated that there was a full prescription under an assumed name, 'Arthur King', with anti-inflammatories for the star's back and that the bottles were no longer there.
White never replied.
According to the report, her body was found by friends who had gone to her residence after a third party told them she had broken up with Carrey the week before.
Dennis Bradshaw and his wife Lena had gone to the home with Montez after not hearing from White after the split.
They tried to gain entry through the front door, but found it locked. They eventually managed to gain entry through a side door, after calling her cell phone and hearing it ring inside.
Dennis Bradshaw found Carrey’s number on White's phone and called him to tell him the woman was dead.
One friend, Jenny Burpee, told police that White had 'depressive qualities,' and that when she and Carrey had broken up in 2013, White had 'literally' not eaten or slept for a year afterwards.
White got back to her usual self in the six months after that; Carrey reconnected with her and they started dating again in 2014, Burpee said.
She also recalled how White had overdosed on pills around two to two-and-a-half years ago and had been found by another assistant of Carrey's at the time.
The document confirms that White was previously married to Mark Burton who said that he was aware that his former wife suffered with depressive episodes and had spoken about suicide.
