What is the best way to help someone who is dealing with anxiety/depression?

@iQuit Thank you but its not for me, and she is seeing a therapist. I meant what can I do day to day to make things better.

@NewKidInTown Everyone has some sort of low point in their life and we cope with it differently

Depending on the person is how you go about finding a solution/mannerism to better handle the situation.

Sometimes people hide their woes
others speak openly

As a friend all you can do is respect, listen to them
Help them, when you notice they seem to be slipping back into that pit of depression.

Above all take them out, get their mind distracted and off the negatives they have going on.

It will take time and a resolution for them to be able to improve with how their mind is dealing with this

@iQuit I try to be a good listener, I find sometimes I dont know what to say, or find what I do say is small or insufficient.

@NewKidInTown Sometimes actions speak louder than words.
Quality over quantity of time spent with others is enriching

and never doubt for one moment or belittle your contribution to the process
after all depression is like a slope

and with your support, somehow they have not slipped and hit rock bottom

it's true friends who help see the silver-lining in life
they bring a smile to your face when you can not see for your own a good reason to smile


idk, the reason for their depression but if you'd like some natural remedies might help them

@iQuit thank you! She is currently on meds, but has recently regressed, even while still on them.
