I think L'Wren Scott killed herself due to the depression of being a CSM

I saw something on the news this morning and Googled it. She was 49 and stated she wanted to marry Mick Jagger (her bf) and have a family. But she was 49, ladies..so we know what that means and Mick has a gazillion kids at 70 years old. I read this and thought...did she kill herself because she was a childless SM (gf) and to top it off her business went bad? She had nothing left or to live for in her mind?
Here is the quote:
"There had also been reports that she was keen to have children and wanted to marry Sir Mick.
At the weekend she was not present at a joint baby shower for Sir Mick’s 42-year-old daughter Jade, who is expecting in May, and Jade’s daughter Assisi, 21, whose own baby is due in April. The party was reportedly organised by Sir Mick’s ex-wife Jerry Hall at the former marital home in Richmond, west London. Neither Sir Mick nor Scott were able to attend, as both were abroad."
I mean the BM there, the kid, AND her kid both expecting??? Must of KILLED her inside??? 

Just a theory...

Discipline

One of my teenage Step daughters must have raging hormones because I want to kill her sometimes. It's not just how she talks or treats me, it's EVERYONE. Right down to her boyfriend! DH doesn't call her out as much as he used to because a) he doesn't want to be the bad cop b) he thinks it's just being a teenager. I totally *zip* it. It's tough but, we all know the saying; "NMKNMP".

While doing research, I found this article. Hope it helps you!
