There are many ways to support a loved one. In the article, we have prepared the most versatile and effective of them.
Show compassion
Get into your friend's position and understand what he is going through right now.
No ways do devalue the feelings and emotions of a person.
Avoid saying, that everything will be fine.
Give the opportunity to a friend to tell the situation, to share their feelings and experiences.
Ask how you can help
Ask what you can offer a friend as support.
A person may want to just hug, sit together, and go for a walk.
Offer your help: cleaning the house, walking the dog, cooking.
In a difficult life situation, it is difficult to cope independently with daily activities.
Treat a friend with a gift
Give a friend something that he has long dreamed of or something that will please.
Maybe a friend loves your homemade cakes or needs warm, soft pajamas.
You can also make a gift with your own hands.
Stay close
For a person in a difficult life situation, it is important to feel the presence of another person nearby.
Stay connected, come visit or stay overnight.
However, ask if your friend is okay with it.
Perhaps your loved one wants to be alone.
By following these rules, you will be able to properly support a friend.
