When someone has an illness that affects their brain you're saying they should both be aware of the illness and then seek help for the illness? They should use the logic and reasoning capabilities of said brain, with an illness, to achieve this.

Think about what you're saying. Really think about it. Your broken leg comparison completely misses the mark. How about this scenario?

You are walking and step into the street. You are hit by a bus but survive. You have massive head trauma. At this point nobody else should administer care without first speaking with you and having you acknowledge that you need care. You need to then respond in a coherent manner that explicitly allows you to be cared for before anyone is legally allowed to help you. How do you think that is going to work out for you?
