Hi Poontank,

Have a look at these pages on our website for some information on:

How to support a friend

Signs of depression

Also, if you're stuck on knowing how to start that conversation as Lesbehonest suggested, have a look at the video below:

 

We also have an app for helping you with how you can check in with a friend if you're concerned about saying the wrong thing or making the situation worse:

The Check-in app


Thank you Lesbehonest. i will try and ask her 🙂
