For example, if these people are hearing voices and "seeing things", are they still capable of being "happy" ?

Nobody except a "clinically insane" person could really tell you that. And if you ever got them to answer, would you be able to trust their answer? Sure, psychologists and other people with degrees can hypothesize about it, but how can they ever know for sure. There's always that chance that their diagnosis could be wrong.

Is anyone. All hear and see things; it is the basis of our intellectual processing. If insane people are free from the clinic, there is a good chance they may be happy, does it not depend on what is happening there? Insanity is a highly imaginative child that has no guidance, no assurence of a trusted person. You know, monsters under the bed, aliens in the head, water turning red etc. etc.. In ancient days the trouble insane people would get into was if they immediately contradicted sensory perception.
Experiencing joy in life is very difficult if you are constantly anxious in it. There is plenty of motivation to enjoy people, but little opportunity to be successful at it because strangeness causes other people anxiety at times. It takes a lot of experience to build patience and tolerance. There really should be more psychology and philosophy in junior high, perhaps starting as early as age ten.

enjoying it immediately (for as quickly as), Ms. Coulter isn't insane; i might use the notice "shrewish" which i like greater effective than "*****". while did that fluctuate into an insult, anyhow? i think of if we acted greater like canine (creation rituals and questionable eating behavior excepted) the worldwide could be a greater effective place. she will have a factor, and arguing with a distinctive POV is okay, it is basically how she provides herself is so off-putting that's problematic to maintain the region from escalating via fact she has all the allure of a professional wrestling supervisor. relatively, how are you able to be gracious while somebody inclusive of her retains going for the low blow?

Only if the voices that they hear, and the visions that they see are pleasant ones.

Sure. I think everyone is entitled to happiness reguardless of their situation. Its so sad how stigmatized mentally ill people are. If you have a brain, then you have emotions.

i know with treatment some are able to control visual hallucinations, and some of the auditory ones...they seem to live life to the best of their ability...but ones who r extremely afflicted usually spend the greater part of their life in psych hospitals..usually in a drug induced haze

If they are "clinically insane" would they know that they are happy?

they are not happy if they see or hear pleasent things, if they share it with others who can't see it. if they see unpleasent things obviously they will not be happy.
