Depressed people can be very difficult to be around, and yet they need more than the usual amount of support and understanding from their friends and family.

The anger and lack of concern that a depressed person may have for people close to him or her can be very disturbing to someone who's trying to help. _____1.______. Withdrawal from others can make it nearly impossible to encourage a depressed person to enter into activities that may help pull him or her out of the depression.

______2.____ Attempts to help may be met with defensiveness and verbal attacks. While being supportive and understanding, the friend of a family member must be careful not to do too many things for the depressed person. There is a very thin line between being supportive and being overly protective. Too much “doing for” can be a disservice(帮倒忙).

________3._________

◆Do not moralize. Don't pressure him or her to “put on a happy face,” or to “snap out of it.” Often the person will feel even worse after hearing such words.

◆When you are alone with your depressed friend, you might say something like, “I've noticed lately that you seem down. I care about you and would like to listen to what you're thinking about.” Then be a good listener.

◆______4.______You probably don't. But if you've had similar experiences, sharing those may help. Say things like, “This happened to me. It might help you.” Or “I know some of what you must be feeling.”

To Mr. Alcohol

You’ve been with us for a long time. I won’t forget all the pain you’ve caused for us.

Do you remember the night you almost took my father’s life? I do. He loves you. Sometimes I think he loves you more than he loves me. He’s addicted to you, to the way you promise to rid him of his problems only to cause more of them. You just sat back and laughed as his car went spinning through the street, crashing into two other cars. He wasn’t the only one hurt by you that night.

Do you remember the night of my first high school party? You were there. My friends were intrigued by you. They treated you as if they were never going to see you again, drinking all of you that they could. I spent two hours that night helping my friends who had fallen completely. “I’m so embarrassed,” they said as I held their hair back so that they could vomit (呕吐). “I’m sorry,” they said when I called taxies for them, walking them out and paying the driver in advance. “This won’t happen again,” they said as they were sent to the hospital to have their stomachs pumped (洗胃). Two 15-year-old girls slept in hospital beds that night thanks to you.

Do you remember the night when you took advantage of my 17-year-old neighbor who had to drive to pick up his sister from her dance lessons? Do you know how we all felt when he hit another car and killed the two people in the other car? He died the next morning too. His sister walked home from her dance lesson, and passed police cars and a crowd of people gathering on the sidewalk just two blocks away from the dance studio. She didn’t realize her brother was in the midst of it all. She never saw him again. And it’s all your fault.

I wish you’d walk out of my life forever. I don’t want anything to do with you. Look at all the pain you’ve caused. Sure, you’ve made people happy too from time to time. But the damage you’ve caused in the lives of millions is inexcusable. Stop luring(诱惑)in the people I love. Stop hurting me, please.
