Louise O'Neill: Sometimes people who are struggling can behave in ways that are hard to understand. What do we do when we are confronted by that?

The news that a documentary on Back to Black, Amy Winehouse’s seminal album, is due out next month was so exciting that I immediately started listening to her music on repeat.

After that, I fell down a rabbit hole of interviews, and I somehow came across an article from 2008 about the difficulties Amy’s neighbours were having with her “chaotic” lifestyle and their efforts to have her evicted.

I scrolled down to the comment section (I know, I know). “She’s dead to me... I’m going ahead and making her dead to me so it won’t be such a shock when she really is dead,” wrote one person.
