[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, I am the physician who posted the long post.

I didn't say a choice wasn't involved and I explicitly said consequences are a reality, including dying, losing loved ones who refuse to watch you devolve, etc. I also said, OP can't control what he does.

What I did try to do is explain why his behavior which seems rational is utterly delusional. And to offer information that can be helpful because as a family member, it's hard to see what you can do in this situation.

I also think a good view of this is someone who refuses medical treatment for something that can be treated. If that is the case, what would you do? How would you cope? How would you manage? But again, that is such a personal journey and therapy and Al-Anon can be incredibly helpful.

But I feel terrible for you, PP. But I also feel awful for your ex because it is a shame to see a life go. But again, we don't control the consequences. We just have to move accordingly.[/quote]

Thanks for this clarification.[/quote]
