How to help someone that is depressed?

My husband recently got demoted and had to take a pay cut. He is taking it very hard. He thinks he is worthless and can't do anything right. Also that everytime something good happens something happens to make it miserable again. Please HELP! 😢

Been there, done that, got the t-shirt, the ink pen, the lighter and the hat! Yeah it hurts like a motherfucker, but have faith.I'm 58 and it's happened to me twice in my (not so illustrious)career.He WILL recover.It may take months or even a year (like in my last case)but it will happen.Keep working, keep swimming, stay active and don't feel sorry for yourself.Side-hustle, network, work all the OT you can, update your resume and PRAY!! Remember, it won't happen in your time,but it WILL happen!I'm in your corner.Good luck!
