He was hounded to take medication when his homosexuality was discovered. He may have taken the poison as a result of depression. This is the usual explanation.
There are other views, a recent one is that the apple he partly ate was infected by the cyanide after a lab accident, there is some evidence for this.
Another view is to blame British intelligence who wanted to stop him working for the Soviets. At that time a homosexual could not get security clearance and was equated in evil with communism, and therefore a security risk. Here is the argument:

Personally, I go for the accident explanation.
Mozilla should have taken a lesson from this.
I see on my television ads of our young men, our best and brightest CRIPPLED, maimed, disfigured.
I see on my television, the enemies of my people, retaking the lands that these heroes bled to free.
And I'm not supposed to be angry? Is this alone not enough to make any decent, loving man *angry*?
No, I'm not angry at ISIS; they are an ancient evil that I know how to confront and defeat. I'm angry at the left among my own people, the ones who would make servants and then cripples of our best and brightest rather than make slaves and corpses of our enemies. I'm angry at the left among my own people, who think the way to fight a war is to kiss the enemy's ass until he loves us, rather than kicking his ass, and the asses of his women and children, until he begs us to be his master and be content.
I'm angry because my own people, young, exceptional men, were crippled for the sake of political correctness, by a nation so sick and twisted it couldn't find the spirit to hate our enemy, to desire to inflict suffering on our enemy, in the ancient way that won wars before WWII was even a thought in Hitler's hindbrain.
I'm angry seeing these crippled young men, and I say crippled, not "handicapped", not "physically challenged", because they were CRIPPLED by our own sick society that would rather CRIPPLE them than butcher the enemies of our culture, society and nation.
You talk of showing appreciation for war heroes... if we honored ours, there wouldn't be anything but charred remains from Baghdad to Damascus.
Have you read Kipling's opinion of how the Brits treat their war heroes?

The Last of the Light Brigade
"They went without bands or colours, a regiment ten-file strong,
To look for the Master-singer who had crowned them all in his song;
And, waiting his servant's order, by the garden gate they stayed,
A desolate little cluster, the last of the Light Brigade."

'"No, thank you, we don't want food, sir; but couldn't you take an' write
A sort of 'to be continued' and 'see next page' o' the fight?
We think that someone has blundered, an' couldn't you tell 'em how?
You wrote we were heroes once, sir. Please, write we are starving now.""
