Damn. I am sorry to hear that.

Sadly, it is not an unusual story (for me). I have heard similar bureaucratic Catch-22 stories for years.

Basically, no one wants to acknowledge that people with mental health issues even exist (unless it's a family member, then "That's different...").

They get totally shafted. Criminals tend to get treated better.
