Section Warm-Up
Depression can affect those around you.
Have you ever comforted a friend or family member who seemed to be depressed? Have you ever been depressed and turned to a friend for help? What were some things you or your friend did to reach out and get help? Take a moment now to brainstorm how you might help a friend who is depressed. Make a list of strategies to help your friend using your personal experiences or ones that you have learned.
When you have completed this section, return to your list: What have you learned that you didn’t know when you began?
