We (the family) have tried to talk to my girlfriends Dad about seeing a therapist. He certainly has depression, chronic pain, perhaps manic depressive, and perhaps bi-polar disorder. Anytime anyone talks to him about seeing someone he always has an excuse as to why that "b.s." won't help him. He blames it all on his pain but he won't leave the house, sleeps weird hours, is just so very negative. We think that talking to someone will help. What do you think???
