Helping my friend (2)

1 Name: Nika : 2015-10-25 10:35 ID:eJ1Zja+P [Del]

Not too far ago I met a girl online who's really close to me, even if she's just an internet friend and we'll probably never meet in real life.
She showed me this site and told me that people are really helpful, so I am asking you now.
This girl I've been taking about has been feeling down for weeks now. I've discovered that not too far ago she had something that was very similar to depression ( she said it wasn't that serious and didn't tell me the details ), and I'm very afraid it is not over. How is it possible to cheer someone up who's very faw away? I know talking about it would make her feel worse and I know the exact reason ( boy and family probems mostly) which are hard for me to solve.
I'd really appreciate if you could help me out.
Thank you!!^^

Solving those issues directly would be hard. It's likely that she will need to adjust her perspective on her own in order to overcome those things. I'd suggest just being a good ear, and try to have good times with her. Don't try to make her repress those feelings, but do allow her to feel other ones as well. Do something fun.
