Why wont some people get help for mental disorders?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Avoiding therapy: In the many years i've been doing therapy, I have found that there is always a percentage of the population that resists and/or refuses to get help for their psychological problems. The reasons for this are as varied as peoples' personalities are, but as a general rule, these individuals are either in denial of their problems, are anxious about looking at themselves, or would rather blame others.

Non-compliance: Also, ones who lack insight into their illness will see no need for help.
