Anosognosia, unfortunately, is a tough nut to crack.

This loosely means “lack of awareness or insight” in Greek.

Anosognosia is a lack of ability to perceive the realities of one’s own condition. It’s a person’s inability to accept that they have a condition that matches up with their symptoms or a formal diagnosis.

This occurs despite significant evidence of a diagnosis, and despite second and even third medical opinions confirming the validity of a diagnosis.

Anosognosia is a result of changes to the brain. It’s not just stubbornness or outright denial, which is a defense mechanism some people use when they receive a difficult diagnosis to cope with. In fact, anosognosia is central in conditions like schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.

Something tells me that committing people against their will and freezing their assets isn't going to convince these people that the deep state isn't out to get them.

Any parent of a mentally ill adult knows you cannot just commit people. A vision of our country having those kind of resources is as much a fantasy as QANON.
