Be there for a friend
Friends can be the best support system of all. Here are some simple ways to be there for a friend:
• Donate your time. Uninterrupted listening time, whether in person or over the phone, is one of the best gifts you can give a friend.
• Be a reminder of positive things.
• Send a card, e-mail, text message, or leave a voicemail message letting your friend know you’re thinking about him or her.
• Offer to run errands or care for family members to allow your friend some time to relax.
• Visit in person when possible if a friend is ill or in need.
