When I suffered from depression years ago, people would actually say to me, "C'mon, stop being that way, just be HAPPY!"
I'd say the same applies here. If the individual is too damaged, they cannot see it, and no amount of coaxing and/or cap exclamations will change anything. Therapy is about the only thing that will make any difference. Now, if the individual refuses to do even that much, then there is nothing anyone can say or do for them. And there are in fact people who like to wallow in their own misery, and in part because it's the easier path. Whereas doing something about it requires effort and work.
