Before Prozac, there was a simple solution to everything. Drinking. Depressed? Drink. Hard day at work? Drink. Kids who were beaten didn't say anything because parents weren't to be questioned. Wives didn't say anything about abusive husbands mistreating them because a woman's place is in the home and she didn't have a right to complain.
Anyway, to answer the question, you need therapy if you are unable to think normally due to persistant depressed or abnormal thoughts. you need therapy. If you can't go on with normal life due to problems, you need therapy. If you had a bad day, see if you recover in a short time; if you don't, you may need therapy. If you can't go on with normal life, you may need therapy. If somehting that you would normally be able to shrug off really seriously affects you, and that kind of thing happens more than once or twice, you may need therapy.
