I think psychological insights can be helpful which people can read about and put in to practice, and talking to people but they don't need to be therapists
Also I think sometimes the root cause of some mental illness is guilt, for example the left supporting immoral practices and thus being more mentally ill, so a lot of these therapists are just rationalizers who don't acknowledge the root problem and encourage mentally ill leftists to stop supporting such mentally ill practices as they support them as well
I was getting a sensible chuckle being reminded of this topic seeing some leftists recommending therapy to each other
then of course there's the sketchiness of people who would gaslight you if you oppose therapy by saying that you actually need it (as if you have no choice in the matter), or like in therapy people being guilt tripped to talk about things they might not want to talk about, or accusing people of having harmful beliefs that might be genuine beliefs they don't share (like that Trump has some kind of personality disorder).
what a minefield

I read that nearly 100% of people that jumped off of bridges (that survived) regretted the decision almost as soon as it was too late to do anything about it. The ones I read about made mid-course corrections to increase their chance of survival.
If I were king of the world, I would make a suicide simulator that would be convincing and real. Let people jump off of a bridge or push them off, anything so they can feel that 'OH CRAP' moment and know in their heart that this is the end.
Of course it would be safe, I think that it would be very effective as well.
