A 35-year-old woman who died after falling from a fifth-floor balcony in York had lived with long-term mental health issues, an inquest heard.
Lisha Ruth Blackhurst - whose family said she left a “trail of love and unforgettable memories” - died on November 5, 2024, in the car park of Rydale House, in York, where she lived.
The inquest heard Lisha had a history of depression, anxiety, insomnia and post-traumatic stress disorder.
She had struggled with her mental health for many years, the inquest held in Northallerton Coroners Court on Tuesday April 8, was told.
Assistant coroner Jonathan Leach concluded Lisha had taken her own life.
