Seems pretty clear they reject treatment, not just therapy. You'd have to start a regimen of medication, unplug them, and ship 'em to a farm or something where they have to do some physical activity outside around other people just to raise their baseline enough to even start to see if medication works or not. I'm close to people with clinical depression, some of whom self-regulate (without medication in some cases, most with) and at least some of the people involved in the interview are doing the exact opposite of everything the self-regulators advise. These poor bastards seem to embrace their disease as a badge of honor, without realizing they're eagerly choosing misery (though I've no doubt they'd say they embrace that too).
There was an article (I think I read on SE, for that matter) not long ago about how, socially, Japan is a decade or so ahead of the West: the NEETs, or more extreme hikikomori, dramatically increased suicide rates, etc. I wonder though - culturally the Japanese seem to ingrain a much stronger sense of social duty though, so lashing out in the way of the incel/alt-right seems far less common.
