Inquest: Woman's suicide linked to stopping medication

An inquest into the suicide of a 27-year-old woman has found her decision to stop taking her medication was likely a factor in her death.

Clêr Ann Moran hanged herself on July 18 last year at her home in Edward Street, Treharris, Merthyr Tydfil county.

Medication history

She had been prescribed medication for some time to manage her depression and anxiety, Pontypridd Coroner's Court heard.

Coroner Patricia Morgan said the post-mortem examination appeared to show Clêr had not been taking her medication in the lead-up to her passing.

Coroner's conclusion

Ms Morgan said this "likely impacted upon her state of mind". The coroner recorded a conclusion of suicide.

The court heard Ms Moran was born in Caerphilly. The record of inquest did not state her to have an occupation at the time of her death.
