Don't need Therapy?????

I know two people who have gone to therapists, but then they thought they were better and didn't need anymore. Yes taking meds helped me, but they don't help 100 per cent.

One person told me that she couldn't afford it. I knew she needed it after she made that statement. First she could afford it if she stopped spending money on clothes. Too me it wasn't rational. Clothes are more important than mental health?????

 Than she believed reading the bible would help her. I thought, are you an idiot? Yes reading the bible can help somewhat, but the bible is not an expert on mental illness. I tried to reason with her that God created therapists to help those who are mentally ill. It's like praying for God to fix a broken TV. It ain't going to happen.

 The co dependent in me kept trying to convince her to see a therapist. But she thought she was fine. But she wasn't. I was getting frustrated and finally crossed her off my list of friends.

I hope she eventually will seek therapy again. I'll never understand her logic, but I know I couldn't function without seeking professional help.
