I did not personally know Caroline Flack. Her death and the pressures she was put under have focused attention not only upon mental health issues but also stress which celebrities are forced to put up with, the trolls who generally have nothing of value to say but insist on saying it, the media which builds people up to knock them down, the police and Crown Prosecution Service and the policymakers who insist that one size fits all. Before we can find any kind of answer we should at least honestly face up to the issues which we as a society have created.
