Women do not hang themselves in a suicide. They take pills.
Something’s not right about this.
Not everybody has pills (or worse) at hand when they get the overpowering sense that they can’t go on living another minute. At that moment, *how* it ends doesn’t really matter to them...*that* it ends is paramount.
As to why...could be as simple as, much like Marilyn Monroe, she was getting older, saw her opportunities ending, and couldn’t take it.
