That is often like the people telling my husband, who suffers from a degenerative neurological pain disorder, "you're better off meditating, breathing deeply, and praying the pain away. Stay away from neurologists, pain specialists, orthopedists." (Yes, clueless people actually say things like that.) It is insulting to minimize the level of psychological suffering and true disability that is the result of abuse, neglect, depression, addiction, etc. The assistance and support of therapists and psychiatrists is often the line of defense between life and death for people. Perhaps YOUR emotions can be handled that simply; do not assume everyone is the same as you.
