Mental illness can cause limitations, so I disagree that the only limitations people have are those they put on themselves as that's not exactly accurate. I am doing my best to not give up on life, but I am not going to pretend I have no limitations or that there aren't some things I can't do.

This just seems to go back to that whole, if you're not well on your way to recovery or an ideal life you're simply not trying hard enough which I also find flawed.
