My friend doesn t want help

My friend has been struggling with intrusive thoughts and insomnia for years. I told her it might be beneficial if she would go to a psychologist but she said she didn't want a stranger to root around in her head. Then I suggested meditation, because I have anxiety and meditation helped me. She said "I'm not sure intrusive thoughts should/could be cured with meditation but [shrugging emoji]" which to me seemed kinda condescending. I don't get her. She doesn't want professional help, and she isn't open to more alternative methods either. Does she thrive on suffering and complaining about it?

Psychologists and meds aren’t the cure all for depression and anxiety. I’ve tried both and most of the former were just paid to be listeners, and the latter nearly killed me. A lot of medications have dangerous side effects. I doubt she wants to suffer but sometimes the “cure” is worse than the disease.

As someone who has this same issue with a friend, I hear you. It doesn't matter what you say there is always an excuse not to deal with the problem. I basically just cut them off when they start to complain about it, or I ignore them and change the subject. I'm too old now to deal with this stupid nonsense. People who only want to complain about their issues and do nothing about them are addicted to complaining not actually fixing anything. I know way too many family members like this. You have my sympathies.
