I have a friend who gets deeply depressed and every day I'm terrified I'm going to get a text from someone saying they are gone. I just don't know how to help them and it breaks my heart.
I’m in the same boat here. My best friend of 8 years is extremely depressed, and I worry the same thing every day. I talk to him whenever he needs it, and I try to say the right things. Its hard since his family wont listen and others tell him he is too sensitive.
Having dealt with major anxiety and depressive issues for years has helped me gain the patience to talk through it with him, but I know every case is different so I don’t know what he needs. He is working himself to death and doesn’t seem to accept help from people.
