I wish there was an article on how just friends can help a depressed person without taking it in themselves...or just remain loving but neutral....
It's hard to be around someone who's depressed all the time. The problem is that many people don't want to admit to being depressed, are worried about seeking help for depression or are simply embarrassed about being depressed.

The sad part is that you need to do something about depression in order to understand and ultimately beat it but it's depression that sucks your drive out of you making you not want to act.
