It's those who've been legally adjudicated to be a danger who are barred. If you think about it, a full quarter of the adult population may at some time have a psychiatric disorder at some point in their lives, and it would make no sense to legislate to discourage them from seeking treatment, which would certainly be the case if that were to bar them from their rights.
