Menopause: Grieving husband talks about wife's mental health symptoms

A husband whose wife took her own life has urged men to learn more about symptoms associated with the menopause.

Linda Salmon, 56, took her own life last April after her anxiety worsened during the Covid pandemic.

Her husband David said he had not realised there was a link between the menopause and suicidal thoughts.

He said an item on BBC Look North TV opened his eyes to the mental health impact some women face.
