    I have been reading the judgement in a recent mental capacity court case about someone who wanted to refuse medical treatment. She'd been labelled with narcissistic personality disorder and deemed to lack capacity.
    It raises some interesting points about where unconventional/eccentric personalities and life choices are considered to turn into a mental disorder.

    eta might be a penguin for some as it's about the right to die.

    Work is worse than I thought should have taken the time off from the docs

    Not too late - I'm sure they'd still sign you off if you asked them to.

    Dr Who was ruined for me by Billie Piper. I really dislike her so even though I love DT, I couldn't watch him in Dr Who because her face makes me want to punch things, and then I feel bad because she's probably a very lovely person.

    I also liked Christopher Ecclestone - something weirdly sexy about him.

    I love Noel but he'd make a terrible partner as he's married to his practice. I sob at that show though and hug DA dog all the way through it.

    Melly - you can self certify for 7 days then have the doctor sign you off. Ultimately the only person who can help you is you and if you won't do what you need to get better, then you'll get worse. Go home. Make an appointment with the doctor. Ask for something to make you sleep.

    Also remember you self-certify for the first seven days anyway.

    ETA: cross posted with code. Great minds and all that :)
