How can I support someone with depression?

Supporting someone with depression can be challenging but incredibly important. Start by listening to them without judgment; sometimes, just having someone to talk to can make a big difference. Encourage them to seek help from a GP or mental health professional, as treatments like counseling and medication can be very effective. Offer to accompany them to appointments, or help them find resources in the community, especially those that cater to South Asians. Show them that you care and are there for them, and remind them that they are not alone in this struggle. Your support can make a significant difference in their recovery journey.
