How to Help Someone with Depression

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.

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