How do you help your friend who is battling depression?
I have this one friend who is depressed and honestly I don't really know what to say whenever she talks to me about it. The best way is to just be a listener but when you're chatting with her it's kind of hard to not give a response, isn't it? Tried telling her she should seek professional help but her mom is kind of traditional and doesn't believe that depression is a mental illness.
She told be that lately she's feeling disconnected to some people but I know for the fact that one of the factors is her exclusive group of friends that are really possessive. I want her to know that she is still very much loved and appreciated, and I want her to kind of 'loosen up' with her exclusive group but I don't know how. Can anyone help me?
Hi :)
Sounds like you've had some good advice so far for your question! I suggest you pick and choose what you feel comfortable doing or saying.
It's tough seeing someone you care about suffer... In these times though, as hard as it is, it's also important for you to set your limits. Make sure to take care of your mental health too, eh? You seem...... reply
