Just another thought... yes, there are those who need so much help and having never received any actual help, need to be helped at the most basic level: that of empathy. They do need to hear that "there, there" compassion. ( And everyone needs to know they're being heard and understood.) However, it's a thin line at some point where it goes into enabling, which does neither any good but perpetuates the disorder.
