But what can "close friends" do? Real question. My understanding is that real clinical depression is not the kind of "feeling down" we all experience at some point or another. That's not something you fix by just having a drink, talk a bit, or go to a party. It is more like the absence of feelings. Depressive people are more likely to take the least resistance path to everything you try to do. Want them to go out, they will follow you. Want them to talk, they will answer your questions. Leave them alone, they will stay where they are. In fact I know someone with severe depression who didn't even have physical feelings (like hunger, pain, cold, sleepiness, etc...). |
