I think mental illness is a slippery slope to talk about these days because people are overly diagnosed, overly prescribed, overly everything.
But the helmet had gold decoration, and the bespoke armorers had made a new gleaming breastplate with useless gold ornamentation on it. Sam Vimes felt like a class traitor every time he wore it.
