my mind is slowly shutting down

[gaylesmith]

I don't know how you legal folk out there do it. Seriously.
I've spent the last couple of days reading up on the legal aspects of my work in psychiatry and I can feel my mind switching off after a paragraph. I think I was irreversibly lost in the bit about competence, diminished responsibility and mens rea - what is that in English anyway

mens rea the guilty mind. i.e. a illegal intention behind an act.
