A Norwich man with a history of mental ill health took his own life after drinking heavily at his home, an inquest has heard.
Martin Conroy, 57, was found by his carer at his home on Margaret Crescent, Thorpe St Andrew, on October 21.
The inquest heard Mr Conroy had moved to a new bungalow in August 2020 following the break-up with his wife of 35 years in June.
A statement written by his ex-wife had stated Mr Conroy s mental health had deteriorated while they were living together in Aylsham, and he became increasingly paranoid.
She continued to support him after he moved to Thorpe St Andrew.
