I have not finished the book yet so excuse me for assuming , Dr Jekyll seems to have a bit of a guilty conscience to say the least , this is demonstrated by his confession for his dear friend Mr Utterson , I believe he is someone who happened to discover and be affected by the evil that is too much power. Seemingly he is portrayed as a cold and evil character however he kills himself out of the guilt and the realisation of what he had done. Redemption was out of the question so his death was bound to happen. That is how I see but alas

It is because he is afraid of being caught for the crimes that he has committed, and he wanted to kill Dr. Jekyll in the process

What is the resolution of the strange case of Dr. Jekyll and mr hyde?

Jeckyll starts turning into Hyde more and more frequently and he sequesters himself inside his lab. As his potion to turn back into Jeckyll begins to run out (and he will be Hyde forever when the potion runs out) he writes a letter wondering if Hyde will kill himself or wait for the cops who will kill him anyway. -Earlier in the book, we indeed see Hyde dead by suicide.


By what method did Mr Hyde commit suicide?

There are many debates about which character killed themselves, Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde and it is a matter of your opinion and how you perceive the book, but if you go of the bare facts, you should know that Dr Jekyll has a certain degree of control over Mr Hyde's actions, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to turn back, and it was Mr Hyde's voice that responds when Mr Utterson and Poole threaten to break down the door. So yes it was Mr Hyde who killed himself, however I believe that it was Dr Jekyll that took control of Mr Hyde's actions in order to force him to kill himself. I think this because Mr Hyde would have committed suicide already to kill Dr Jekyll if he did not love life. You could also say it was completely Mr Hyde's choice to kill himself, as his terror of being caught and hung at the gallows for murder could have got the best of him.
