IT’S NOT A SIGN OF WEAKNESS, IT’S A CALL FOR HELP

How to help someone with depression

  • Depression is not a sign of weakness, but rather a call for help
  • Take time to listen to what a person is saying without being judgmental
  • A depressed person needs someone who can understand him/her, this alone is enough to heal someone
  • People may have similar experiences but have different reactions. Therefore, they should not be compared to other people
  • If you can’t do anything about the situation, just listen
  • Mostly people need to be listened to, more than being spoken to
