Some folks can tolerate horrible events in their life and find the strength to keep going. Others, unfortunately, can collapse into severve depression over minor occurences. Mental depression cannot be avoided if your are pre-disposed to this condition. Only therapy and a prescription drug regimen will get you to the next day.
Sadly in Hollywood, some of the unfortunate suicide victims include George Sanders, Brian Keith, George Reeves (TV's Superman), Marilyn Monroe, Peter Duel, Michael Dunn, Ed Flanders, Nick Adams, Rusty Hamer, Rick Jason, Freddie Prinze, and Herve Villechaize.

She was going to have a press conference to tell the world about her relationships with the Kennedy Brothers but as we now that never happen because of the events of August 5, 1962.

For what it's worth, Ms. Monroe's official death certificate states that her cause of death was "probable suicide."
However, like you, I also believe she was murdered because of her affairs with both of the Kennedy brothers.
