'RHOBH' Kim Richards Needs Mental Help, According to Her Co-Stars

Did you see the second part of the RHOBH reunion last night, April 7? Kim Richards was just plain mean all season long, and there was some hope that now, months after filming, something would have changed. Instead, she seemed to arrive at the reunion ready for a fight. It was pretty clear this season that Richards was struggling with her sobriety and it is something that she is still refusing to really acknowledge. As each of the cast mates either offered up their concerns or called her out for her behavior, Richards would deflect with insults. The bottom line is that everyone is concerned for her well-being and, according to her co-stars, she needs mental help.

We know that Richards is helping to care for her terminally ill ex-husband and one of her grown kids just spent several weeks in a mental health facility. The stress of those things is enormous, and while Richards would be wise to seek some help herself so she does not fall off the wagon, she is flat-out refusing.

According to a report by Radar Online, "Kim's friends really want her to see a mental health professional," an insider told Radar. "There is only so much a person can deal with. And when looking at Kim's history with alcohol, it just makes sense to get additional resources on board. The concern is that it's just too much for Kim to handle on her own. The fact that Kim is currently estranged from her sister, Kyle, certainly isn't helping. No one can force her to get help, but it's not a good sign that she isn't accepting it at this point."

She is not playing the game at all. What are your thoughts on Richards's recent behavior? Do you think she has fallen back into her addictions? Tell us your thoughts in the comments section below.
