How do you support a loved one through a depressive crisis?

Hi everyone, how are you today?

These moments can feel overwhelming, and it’s not always easy to know what to say or do, especially when emotions are running high and nothing seems to help.

• Have you found any strategies that help you stay calm and supportive during those moments?
  
• Do you try to spot warning signs early on? Are there resources or tools that helped you feel more prepared?
  
• And once the crisis has passed, how do you care for yourself?

Whether you’re a partner, a parent, a friend or a sibling, your experiences matter, and they could really help someone else who feels helpless or unsure right now.

Take care,
