Do you know someone who has struggled with depression, and if so, how have you supported them through their journey? What resources or strategies have you found to be most helpful in providing assistance to individuals dealing with depression?
 
I have had friends and colleagues that have been depressed. What I do is to listen to them and make them feel they are not alone in that. Next thing I do is to give them books on Self Help and positive thinking. I have seen many friends come out of depression with this help.
 
I have a friend who has battled with depression, and I've been there to support her by listening to her problems. Sometimes, I even send her food to make her feel better a bit.
 
Well, my father suffered with depression. We knew his conditions but I don't know if we made his conditions worse or better.
 
I met a man who was so depressed because he couldn't pay his kids' school fees. His depression level was so bad. He felt useless in life. I had to help him clear the fees for the two kids. His condition improved and he was relieved enough to go get a job.
