Ah!- Now I see where you are getting confused
You weren't being criminally prosecuted- you were being committed to a 
mental health facility.
It isn't a crime to be insane.
Committal to a mental health institution is a due process of law which has 
nothing to do with criminality at all- therefore the sixth amendment would 
be irrelevant in this instance, which is why the judge disallowed it.
On the other hand, you could have submitted evidence to show that you 
weren't insane, but judging by your posts here, that might have been a 
little difficult for you.
