Whenever depressed, I think we really need to take time off and change our surroundings and get away from that situation for sometime.

I don't know that I've been depressed before but I do experience deep sadness and that's hard enough to handle. Make sure you stay in contact with your friend and try to cheer her up. She needs to understand that she has someone to turn to for help.

i do that.. although when she reaches deep depression she also shots me out ( turns off cellphone ) . we live far away from each other and i will keep on worrying about her

Oh you should tell someone about this. There are hotlines i think. Does her parents know? Do you know why she feel that way? I think you should let her see a doc.. This is a serious problem..

It would be nice if she will have a consultation from a specialist.

One thing you can do is let them know there are good things around. This will help them get out of the depression.
