Not sure why leading someone you love towards getting much needed help would be such a terrible idea...but whatever... If she doesn't like the suggestion, she doesn't have to accept it. And, if he doesn't want the help, he doesn't have to take it.
Regardless, there is absolutely NOTHING wrong with seeking professional help for issues (for emotional, physical, addictive behaviors, or otherwise) if you needed it. In fact, it's the smart thing to do! Some things are bigger than we are...and more than we can bear alone.
