Yup, very well versed on Anosognosia. I've read a ton of books, have done loads of research online, and have consulted with a couple of psychiatrists. As far as schizo forums go, tried that route but it's simply too painful hanging in them places. You can only read about parents who have to willfully have their children committed for so long before you want to jump off a bridge.

What an evil vile thing.

Impaired awareness and anosognosia in mentally ill
