People in need of help are best off working with a professional. I mean, you wouldn't ask people to open up about their physical ailments in a group (that's what a doctor is for), so I'm not sure why you'd want them to open up about their mental struggles that way. Actually, the thought of it is quite shocking the more I think about it. What a terrible idea.
i'm trying to be polite in responding to you, but some times you make it very difficult.

Having a constructive discussion about resources and that it's ok to seek help is the very essence of this entire movement. You have jumped to a conclusion which is not only wrong but underscores the challenges facing people from being comfortable asking where to go for help.
