00:00 Reality TV star and business mogul Kim Kardashian is facing backlash after
00:05 revealing that she's never seen a therapist because she has quote "the best
00:09 friends." In a recent episode of Who Lose the Kardashians, Kim K shared, "This week
00:15 in particular has been complete chaos, but honestly I wouldn't be here if it
00:19 wasn't for my friends. Like I have the best friends and they're super
00:23 supportive. I think that's probably why I've never seen a therapist is because I
00:27 have the best friends in the entire world and they mean everything to me."
00:31 While some thought the Kardashian gushing over her inner circle was simply
00:35 sweet, others have issue with the star's comments. Some social media users felt
00:40 that normalizing treating friends as therapists is toxic behavior that
00:44 shouldn't be glamorized, while others saw no issue with depending on friends for
00:48 emotional support. But that wasn't the only debate Kardashian's comments
00:52 sparked. Other social media users believe that Kardashian would never need therapy
00:56 because of her level of wealth, while others countered that the star has
01:00 experienced a lot in life and therapy could be helpful in unpacking it all.
