Ankh, it's always sensible to see a medical professional rather than self-diagnosing, even if you're pretty sure that you're right. All of those factors are relevant information to give to the doctor, but they don't mean there isn't something else playing a part in your personal situation.
Welu:
While getting an official diagnosis from the appropriate people is preferable, it's bloody hard to get one and sucks in the mean time when you're unable to do anything with your ailment because of lack of an official diagnosis and seeing the people who could help you means being on a list for at least nine fucking months.
That mini-rant isn't really constructive. I'm a bit pissed off with the local health system right now.

hedgie, that's not my experience at all. I don't know where you live, and I can't speak for the whole country, but I don't think that all places view drinking as bad. Especially not in my beer-centric city.
Barmymoo:
I agree that it sucks how long you have to wait for a diagnosis. Months-long waiting lists are completely ridiculous; I fully sympathise.
I got a new lamp! It is pretty and purple and a very simple shape but I like it. I needed a bedside light and finally got round to ordering one. By some miracle I was home when they delivered it (I've been trying to get a delivery of some business cards for the last week and they have still utterly failed to deliver it when I've been here, despite my ringing up several times and specifying "Monday afternoon" or "just leave it in the porch").
Also I applied for a couple more jobs, or rather more accurately a couple more schemes within the job of student ambassador which I already got. One is to give presentations at local schools to encourage students to apply for my course, and another is to be an ambassador for the whole university, not just my campus. That in turn can lead onto another job, which also sounded interesting. Gainful employment!
Welu:
Sounds exciting, May! Hope good job things happen for you!
