Mark Priestley was found dead yesterday, the latest victim of depression.

Beyond Blue chairman Jeff Kennett spoke about the matter that left Australians in shock, emphasising that depression can hit anyone at anytime, regardless of success, personal status or perceived happiness, and it is crucial to seek help if you are feeling vulnerable.

The much loved All Saints actor, just 32 years old, is thought to have killed himself.

He fell from a building in the Sydney CBD.

Mark Priestley’s family will hold a funeral service in Perth on September 4.

   We are very sad of the recent death of Mark.
   We too have had a victim of depression in our family , which caused our son 23yrs to try to self harm. He is one of the blessed ones he was found & is now under going treatment. Our hearts go out to Marks family & friends. You cant understand the pain until you go through it yourself.
