Depression is a very serious illness, especially in teenagers and young adults. Open a dialogue with your friend, and strongly suggest that they seek professional help. It could be the conversation that saves their life.

If your boyfriend is depressed and you love him you should try to convince him to get help. He can see his doctor to talk about the depression and possibly get some medication to help him. It can be hard to cope when someone you love is depressed. Just be strong and be there for him and let him know that you care.

My friend is depressed over his best friend dyeing how can I cheer him up?

I think you need to realize that your friend might not want to be "cheered up" right now. Death is something that has to be emotionally dealt with when it happens or it can affect the rest of your life. It might help to give him space or a better perspective though to help him cope. I would try and point out that his friend would likely want to see him celebrate his life rather than be depressed, or that for all we know he is in a better place, whether you're religious or not, the truth is we don't know. And if there is no afterlife, then he is at peace. You can also make him commit to live the best life he can on his friend's behalf to make it feel like his death can actually mean something. Whatever your style, help him deal with it rather than try to cheer him up.


What should you do if you want to help your friend but you don't know how you can help?

pray for them
