I believe eventually everyone will change when they are ready to change. Most people come here for emotional support I guess. For example, I am very socially anxious guy, whenever I open my loneliness problem I get responses like "see a therapist ...", "join a group .... ". For me, I would rather to hear some understanding more than guidance. I know I need to socialize, but guess what? I cannot. People with mental disorders have very narrow perception. May be with some compassion this perception is widened, which allows the person to change. This is my thought.
