A depressed mother who couldn't continue living has left her friends in pain after she killed herself by overdosing on drugs.
Casey-Jo Lee killed herself after sending a depressing message to a friend
A mother left a heartbreaking message before killing herself on Mother's Day. Casey-Jo Lee, 31 sent a close friend a late-night text message saying: ''Sorry hun, but I'm just a waste of space.'' before she killed herself by overdosing on paracetamol.
Another part of the message she sent to Anna Jones before her death read: “Feel a bit depressed, I’m going to kill myself”. Tragically Anna failed to spot the text as she was asleep at the time.
According to
Sun UK, the alarm was raised the following morning when she answered a knock at her front door to find Casey-Jo's children stood on her doorstep. An inquest heard Casey-Jo, from Crewe, Cheshire had been hiding mental anguish stemming back to a failed marriage.
She had been on antidepressants but was not sleeping well and was advised to undergo counselling. Anna who had known Casey-Jo for two years said: “I received a text around midnight but I was asleep. It was saying she was depressed and telling me she was going to take some tablets and was going to go.
"She had never said anything like that before.
“It was a terrible shock, she always put a strong face on.
“We had a knock on the door the next morning and her son came and her daughter and the baby at about 9:30, they were by themselves and I went back with them to the house.
"I went around and found her on the kitchen floor.''
Casey-Jo's boyfriend Shane Tench said: "She was a very good mum, she would be one of the last people on the earth I thought would have done this.
“We spoke throughout the evening, she was fine then she started sending paragraphs. She first started with messages and they were upsetting.
"Throughout the night I continued to get messages.
"She was saying she was going to take an overdose. I started walking to her house and got a message saying, 'Don't come, my mum and dad are here'.
"One of the last messages I got from Casey read something like, 'You'll never believe how much I love you when I see your grandad I'll tell your grandad and you will believe me'.
Casey-Jo's mother Lena Finney, said: "There had been a lot of upset in her life and she had a bad marriage.
"But this came completely out of the blue.”
Recording a drug related death, Coroner Janet Napier said in the absence of a written letter, she could not be certain Casey-Jo intended to take her own life.
