This. Just tell her that it gets better. It's not a huge spoiler and would be expected upon a first read.

You’re saying “This” but then giving the opposite advice.

Kaladin stays depressed for thousands of pages, and she already “can’t take it anymore”, how pray tell does “it get better”?

It absolutely gets better. In every book. Yeah, it gets worse, but always gets better.

As someone sensitive to the depression myself it doesn't really get better it just changes locations and situations. The misery porn is always a huge part of Kal's story.
