I believe my sister has undiagnosed severe anxiety, depression, and agoraphobia. She doesn't leave her house (even before the pandemic) doesn't have friends, a job, or any social interactions outside of her immediate family. She blames those around her for all of her unhappiness and isolation.
We have tried to get her to counseling/therapy, but she has always given up on it before any progress can be made. I believe she would greatly benefit from therapy and/or medication, but what do I know?
Can you offer any help or guidance on how to get someone else into therapy, or something I can do to encourage/help her find treatment?
