Telling people to seek therapy is extremely privileged.

So, I have therapy and I don't get charged anything because I am considered a domestic victim. There are programs out there that can offer free therapy. The person needs to do the work and find these type of programs. I am not saying everyone qualifies for free therapy. I just think the excuse "therapy is expensive" shouldn't be a reason until that person has exhausted all possible resources.

My brother for instance gets therapy as well because he qualifies for a program (not going to go in detail why he qualifies).

I get some people ask for mental health advise from the internet because it's quick and free. But I think this can also be harmful. Not everyone on the internet should be listened to. They would have to remember to take what they are being told with a grain of salt.
