Do's and Don'ts:

Tell her she is sick...

Demand her to do it!

Do Explain to her that 1 out of every 10 people have to see a therapist (or should). Those who do it sooner, get the help just that much sooner...Their lives get on the straight path again....

Say This:

Mother.. I do not wish to upset you but because I love you, I feel the need to be truthful with you. I believe you should think about seing a therapist. If not because you think you need to see one... but because the family is worried and until you do, all of us will remain worried.
