Life isn't about avoiding getting mocked or talked about negatively. It's about finding the people who love you as is on a personal level, to a point that makes and lets you ignore all the others' verbal abuse because you are busy loving and being loved by your own people. And yes, sometimes that means standing up to those that mock each other, when it becomes harassment or becomes threatening or harmful to your and your loved ones' physical integrity or freedom.
That's the point too. Everyone's right to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness, and peaceful anticipation of happiness finding us if and when we can't go looking for it.
Theirs too, but you are their victim at this point. It isn't you that owes them therapy. All you owe them is -- IF you are up to it yourself-- to acknowledge their own sentience to them, since it's clear their life is in utter lack of such acknowledgment of their sentience, their humanity, their value and worth and right to exist on this planet. This will help them realize their people are out there... maybe they've already met or found them but they aren't aware yet that they're each other's people... or maybe their people are those they will meet later. But as soon as they become aware of this, that triggers reassurance in them that it will inevitably happen anyway and also triggers their motivation to look for it. And those two feed into each other until they and their people do run into each other very shortly after that.
