I voted 'other'.

I appreciated his talent in the 80s. He was fabulous, both with his songs and dancing however his extreme antics (child sleepovers, molestation rumors/accusations, perpetual-childhood, physical appearance changes, dangling babies) really made me question his mental state. I cannot imagine what his life must have been like, and how (I feel) he snapped and decided he'd be a child forever, in addition to trying to change his appearance to be something other than how he was born. What mental anguish he must have gone through. It just wasn't normal.
I hope he is finally at peace.

Oh now I get it: the initial autopsy report doesn't include toxicology lab work that takes a few weeks to happen.
