Does that mean they killed themselves? Kind of like we say someone died of cancer instead of multi-organ failure?

Can either be a permannent ego death, or a physical death by suicide. Also, depression causes cancer. Extended periods of high stress hormones like cortisol has soooo many devastating physical effects, let alone mental affects.
