In Thai culture, people seek the help of psychologists when their relatives or their friends or monks can not help them.Moreover, many patients do not go to a psychiatric hospital because other people may think they are crazy and "Crazy People" is the worst symbolic that they receive from society. I think most people deal with abnormal behavior in a friend or relative by observing behavior of who have problems and then if behavior is not severe and does not disturb others, they help the patient by themselves or go to the temple to ask monk to treat. But if abnormal people have severe symptom, they will be persuaded to see psychologist. In addition, there are not enough psychologists and psychiatric hospitals in Thailand.
