Generally, contracts are enforced against both parties so long as each party entered into the same knowingly and voluntarily. Knowing requires an understanding of the facts and issues involved and voluntary means that the same was signed under free will as opposed to duress. The common example of duress is a gun held to the head of the signer.
If you are able to conduct your own affairs such as manage your bank accounts and pay your bills, I would not think you could be declared incompetent. Accordingly, absent some duress, the contract should be enforced.
I trust this answers your questions but do not hesitate to call or email on a free initial basis.
