Anosognosia
Anosognosia is a medical condition in which a person is unaware of their own illness or disability. This lack of awareness is not simply denial — it is caused by damage to the brain, often from conditions such as:
- Stroke (especially right-hemisphere strokes)
- Traumatic brain injury
- Alzheimer’s disease
- Schizophrenia
