my friend is suffering of depression and i feel so bad of her. she even cuts sometimes and i can't do anything to help her because we are too far away of each other. we live in differentcountries. i'd like to hear what other people would say to her in order to make her feel better.

@fig - I'm sorry you didn't receive a response back when you posted this. To me, the most powerful thing you can say to someone struggling with a mental health issue is that you recognize it's happening and that it's hard, that it's okay that they are struggling, and that you are there for them whenever and however they need. Validating the feelings someone is having and letting them know that you care for them no matter what can help in unmeasurable ways.
