How to Help Someone with Depression

About this episode

When someone you know and love is clinically depressed, you want to be there for that person. Still, keep in mind that your friend or loved one has a medical condition, so giving support may mean more than just offering a shoulder to cry on.


From our video on 14 ways to recognize suicidal thinking in someone, many of you asked how to help someone with a depression or suicidal thinking, so we decided to make this video for a start.


Really, there are no clear cut ways to help someone since each person has different needs and respond differently, but here are five small things you can do.


Please help add to the list so that we can help more people! And do share this video around!
