Don't do it!
I've been on long term sick for 3 months now due to a bad back and I persevered for a year before I finally went off work.
The last year was the most miserable I've ever had and the last 3 months have been boring as hell so it's really not worth it.
Appart from anything else, it's really not worth dicking about with your physical health for the sake of getting some time off. I was eventually told that if I didn't take time off my back was a time bomb waiting to go off which could have left me paralysed from the waist down. It's really not worth risking things like that if you ask me.
Just get a new job. It'll make you feel much better in the long run
