I am doing a assignment + 30 minute speech for my degree. It either has to be on a topic related to Mental Health, alcohol and other drugs or Dual Diagnosis.
I want to do something related to mental health e.g Obsessive complusive disorder (OCD)
any other interesting disorders you can suggest???

Big thanks :)

Biggest debate for the past 30 yrs has been the patients right to refuse medication.
Families argue that a person diagnosed with a mental health problem is legally not responsible to make such a major decision about their medical care. They base this on competency rulings in criminal matters.
The law currently sides with the patient. You can make this into a thesis since it is such a hot potato
NY families almost got the State lawmakers to change the law last year and will try again this year.
