You really never know what is going on in the mind and heart of another person. Be as kind to others as it is possible to be.

[orborn]

This goes to show that privilege and position are not immune to the devastation caused by depression. It does not discriminate. Prayers to his wife and family.

I am sure there is so much more to the story that the public will never know

DEPRESSION does not DISCRIMINATE by CLASS, COLOUR or RACE! 💙🇦🇺

I am a widow due to suicide! 7 years on and I wake every day like it was truly yesterday! May this young man rest in peace and may his loved ones find peace and comfort in the days, months and years to come. I can promise light will enter your darkness and that light is from his love! 💜💛❤️

Suicide is devastating ... so sorry for all who cared for this man.

My sister's husband did this exact same thing. With a rifle. In their garden. Fully planned.
To this day there is no answer. They were, to all who knew them, a very happy, sociable and successful couple in the first years of their marriage and with a wonderful holiday booked, ready to go. Money wasn't an issue, they each recently had promotions at work.
My sister has since worked hard to recover.
I shall never understand why he planned this so that a loved one would find him and if there's anyone out there who can tell me why, please do.
I apologise that I haven’t kept to the subject of this thread but it's brought it all back.
My thoughts are absolutely with you Lady Gabriella and your dear family. Please be comforted that you are not alone.

I lost my father to suicide by gun. He had chronic clinical depression. I am so devastated to hear this news. Please reach out for medical help if you have depression. My heart goes out to the family.

My heart goes out to his wife and family. So very, very sad.

Divorce is never the way out, My wife and I have been having issues before I sort out help from a spiritual adviser, i wasn't going to let my marriage of 18years crash

[marmara]

Sometimes, you don't have to be suffering from depression to take the decision to end your life. It can also be a sudden traumatic event, a sudden betrayal, or a disruptive event that will lead one to take this step.

RIP to the departed.
Prayers for strength and healing to the surviving members of the family.

O dear his poor poor father, to find his son like that and then for him to have to go back to the house and tell Toms mother too. 😢😢 After he’d just had lunch with them, seemly happy. His parents ( and of course his poor wife and her family too) will be in agony about why they didn’t know what he’d gone home to obviously ( he’d taken a gun) do. So so sad and heartbreaking. They will never be the same again. 😢😢🙏🙏🙏

[janebaker]

I lost my father this way. Poor father to find his son. Poor mother. So sad. I can't imagine a mother's pain.

[simonf]

Depression is a major killer. And still not recognized as such. For family it is devastating.

[jointheconversation]

How sad , his beautiful smile hiding such a troubled mind. How painful for his parents to find him like this.. My condolences to all the family members. May he RIP..

[shellyharry]

My son committed suicide by gunshot to the head. This was in November 2020 and I'm still not over it. I don't believe I ever will be. One of the cruelest things said to me was : "You're a nurse, didn't you know he was suicidal?". No, I didn't. How could I or anyone but him possibly know?

[fegermany]

He is so handsome, always smiling, but a person's mind is deeper than the ocean. Rest in peace sir and prayer to his family

[flover]

So very sorry to read about Thomas Kingston. He seemed such a great human being and a lovely husband. This is such an enormous loss for his lovely wife and family to deal with. My prayers are with Thomas and his family at this enormously difficult and heartbreaking time . May he rest in eternal peace.
