Because her belongings were found first.

Were her belongings found before or after she’d been reported missing?

Before.

Was this ever posted? I don't remember reading this before.

Gaynor Lord was feeling "off" at work on the Friday she disappeared, a colleague has said.
Ms Lord, who has been missing since December 8, said she "felt funny" that day at the Jarrolds department store, the shop assistant told the Sun.
“She shook her hands as she said it but I didn’t think much of it," the woman said.

I am curious why she was reported missing less than 6 hours after she was seen at work. Was her family already concerned for her such that 6 hours would be enough to report her? I think a lot of us if we were out and about, our families wouldn't worry about us until much later.

I know my family would worry if I was more than an hour late home. However in this case Gaynor's belongings were found before she was reported missing, 4hrs after she was due to finish work

Ah, I see. Thank you.

Thinking of Gaynor's family and friends. And Gaynor too. How horrific for all of them.

Better an end with horror than a horror without end. - One doesn't know, how stressful it would have become in the future. That is the only consolation, probably.

My heartfelt condolences to Gaynor’s close ones. May she rest in peace x

Her private issues leading to this tragic outcome are actually none of our business but I can actually get why we all following this thread got involved.

There were some details that got published in a more open way than usually. I just wish all those missing folks without this much publicity would gain more interest, too.

Instead of Gaynor It could have been any of us, too. Under too much mental or physical duress this could happen to me, you and all of us as well.. IMO only.

Today's DM: "... But the new video obtained by MailOnline shows that a short time later she made an unexpected diversion off St Augustine's Street for some reason, passing along a short pedestrianised stretch into Bakers Road, after being caught by a camera at the corner."
Bakers Road runs in the direction of the river.

I agree, but for her family they will just be wanting her back and wishing they could have done something to prevent it...if they even knew.

I’m not trying to blame GL, but it is awful that the holidays will now be racked with pain for her loved ones. I’ve known people who have survived the suicide of a close family member or friend, and their pain is especially severe and horrendous. I sometimes wonder if there is some element of anger in suicide.

Clearly we don't know what all was going on in her life, but I can't help but wonder about medications when I hear someone said she was "feeling off." A few years back, my neurologist switched my migraine meds - all was okay in the beginning and then I started to "feel off," in ways I had a hard way describing. One day, I was working at the business that I owned, and quite literally basically had, for lack of a better word, a psychotic breakdown. I was hearing voices, having intrusive thoughts, etc. Thankfully I had wonderful employees there who recognized it and called for help. As soon as my neurologist was called, he knew it was the meds, as it had been reported as an extremely rare side effect. Obviously I stopped taking the meds and it was the first and last time I've had that type of incident happen. It was terrifying and I could absolutely see how, if I'd been by myself, something terrible like this could have happened. I'm not saying she didn't intentionally commit suicide, just offering a different perspective. I'm so sorry any of this happened; it's heartbreaking.

I have lost a family member who was a victim of suicide. I hope the family joins a support group where they will be advised that suicide is not a choice and the victim did not do it out of anger. This might not make sense to some but suicide is about ending the suffering of the victim and does not diminish their love of family members.

I’m sorry for your loss.

Yes, I see what you mean: Their own pain had to end, and if they could have spared their loved ones the pain, they would have.

I think in one of the articles they spoke of some kind of counseling in place for the family.

Yes, that’s frightening what bad side effects and reactions to meds can do, and I’ve read of young people committing murder because the meds contributed to a bad state of mind.

It’s fairly well documented that people pre disposed with undiagnosed a.d.d or bi polar can be wrongly diagnosed with depression/ anxiety meds which exacerbate the underlying condition if not realised and I think there are hundreds of undiagnosed people born in the 60’s to 90’s who just went completely under the radar for so many reasons I can’t begin to list. (Well I can) but I think many of us get why.

Gosh. Thank heavens for your colleagues. I am so glad you are here posting and okay today.

Just to summarise:
1. The police say they have found a body, that they're not seeking a third party, and that they send love to GL's family - strongly implying of course that they have found GL's body, but without saying so.
2. The body has not been identified.
<modsnip - insinuations against a person not named POI by LE>
4. According to an unidentified person, GL's husband is well out of it at the moment and he doesn't understand what has happened.
5. The body is expected to be identified today, by a party who as yet has not been identified, and who has not even been said to be a family member.
