Traces of cocaine and alcohol have been found in his system with the fluoxetine antidepressant.
Police said that there were no suspicious circumstances and no third party was involved. CP, Emma Clawson, also said that Mike had been found with several notes to his family, in which he shared his intention to end his life.
At his funeral, Mike's family requested donations to the Campaign Against the Miserable Life (CALM).
On the JustGiving page, they said in a statement: "Mike was loved by so many people and his future was so promising.

"He had a close and supportive network of friends and family, a popular public profile, a large portfolio of promising new businesses, and financial stability that allowed him to enjoy more luxury than most others.
"Above all, he looked impeccably healthy from the outside (some even called him a" Greek god "), and when he was surrounded by friends and family, he was full of jokes and sarcasm and always had a cheeky smile stuck on his face.
"Still, despite everything, and most importantly, he was suffering from mental health problems, a dark depression that he kept very hidden, even from his closest friends and family.
"Thus, on March 16, overwhelmed and exhausted by his personal battle against depression, he made the tragic decision to give up the fight by putting an end to his life."

"Unfortunately, Mike's situation is not unique.In the United Kingdom, suicide is the leading cause of death among men under 45 – 12 men commit suicide every day!
"These statistics are tragic, incredibly scary and heartbreaking – but most of all, they are unacceptable and must change!
"Mike's decision has turned our world upside down, it's impossible for us to understand or accept a life without Mike and there are no words to start describing grief, stress, sadness , shock and disbelief with which we are all drowning now. "
