Depression is an illness and its real! Many of us go thru it and its not fun! There are so many triggers. The death of a loved one, a physical ailment, the end-of-year festivities, Seasonal Affective Disorder, a lack of support in our everyday lives are just a very few of the nasty triggers. Please dont just say to the person, smile or things could be worse. There IS nothing worse!! Once you have gone thru it you know it and the chances of it recurring are great! Medicine only works somewhat and no matter how hard you try to talk your way out of it or try to see things in a happier way the demons are greater! Please dont judge the person because its not cancer or some other horrible disease. Every one person is dealing with his/her own thing, no matter what it is! Just be a friend, even if its not saying a word to them. That is the best support a person can receive. Believe me, its NOT just a BAD DAY! A prayer works wonders even if youre not religious. A kind word is very appreciated. Just be a person with unconditional support and you may help this person in much more ways than you can know. Thank you!
