Odd one this since it seems he was earlier involved in an RTA not many minutes earlier.

Sadly it was his third attempt. So difficult to understand why a young guy in his prime does this. RIP

Any insight as to why? I understand privacy and respect that. But if there's a lesson to learn, I hope sharing such things can help people help others.

One of our biggest telcom corporations has a great annual "Let's talk" campaign that I genuinely think is doing a great job of spreading/seeding the 'it's okay to not be 'okay'' message that prompts more people to talk and seek help, but also people to look and listen for signs and reach out.

RIP the lad.

Not at this stage.

The subject of depression has been at the front on French news as a singer did a quite strong performance on the 8 pm news .

His song is about depression and suicidal tendencies.

Was not aware he had history. Seems that whatever support he received was not enough to excise the demons.

{EDIT} That's not a comment on blame!
