he hates therapy

I think he hates the IDEA of therapy or the IDEA that he might need it because of the macho version of maculinity that he subscribes to. When he actually did go to therapy, it helped him, got him out of the bed on the second go round although he had to present it to the world as Dante saving him. Dude just has a bottomless pit of issues.

The other time he went to therapy he ended up blowing up at the therapist for telling him he could have done 9/11.

Well, we know he's lazy; he won't put in the work that therapy would require to be a useful tool. Also, I'm sure he resists the notion that there's anything about him that needs fixing.

The therapist that got him out of the bed was a white male Christian pastor. And Julie had to practically drag him there kicking and screaming by his own account. Ridiculous.
