During investigations, Sergeant Nia Lambley said to the media outlet, “She was having issues at work. She was being sworn at, bullied and believed she was continually given the worst shifts on the ward”

Because of the on-going bullying, Collins was said to have become “obsessed with her appearance and she would go to the gym four times a day.”

Apart from heading to the gym, she was also said to have been taking slimming pills.

The family explained to the authorities that Collins was trying hard to deal with the stress and with the long, unsociable night shifts. They said she was trying to find a new job.

Collins was an employee at Cefn Coed Hospital in South Wales, which specializes in mental health care.

One month before she ended her life in March 2018, Collins was said to have been looking exhausted, according to her relatives.

They also said she was becoming distant to her children and the rest of her family.

David Reed, Collins’s fiancé, said she had talked about ending her own life, but she said she was too guilty about leaving their two children, as well as abandoning her shifts at the hospital.
