That was when I knew for sure, beyond just wondering, that there was something really cognitively wrong with him.
Oh yes this is true for me. Part of my problem is that I can easily fall back into old patterns for example, expecting reasonable behavior from unreasonable people. Expecting cognitively "normie" behavior from an alcoholic or addict is not a good idea. They just can't. I still get burnt by my XAH and then have to slap myself.
