What would you say to someone battling depression or any other condition and refuses to seek treatment because?

they think psychologists, counselors, psychiatrists, etc are fake and they are annoyed also at the fact that they say these so called professionals lack compassion and empathy and only want money? What would you tell someone you love if they were in this situation and they just rather give up on life rather than seeking mental health professional?

    Very sensible. Those "professional" prescribe "antidepressants" that lead to fits of murderous fury, as at Sandy Hook.

    Tell them what they are: stupid.

    Stupid people suffer a lot because of their own stupidity, doesn't mean that YOU have to, however.
