When someone you love is depressed, do you shower them with emotions or leave them alone?

I've always wanted to know that.

Different with guys and girls?

    depends on the person. some ppl need attention, some ppl need to be alone. like me when i'm down, i usually like to be alone, but sometimes i need attention n love. i think most guys need to be alone.

    Depends on the level of depressed, If it's serious enough I'd try to talk them into getting help, if it's just a little because of a fight with a bf/gf then I'd try to respect their wishes on whether they'd want to be alone. Same for girls and guys.

    Depends on the person. Some want to be left alone while others need a boost of confidence.

    Depressed people don't need to be left alone, they need to be showered with love

    actually it depends on whos sepressed if the person seems like they wanna be alone most of the time...then you should leave them alone or if a person just wants some love then its time to shower with love

    well it kinda depends on the type of person , boy or girl !

    1) try to get them to talkthen LISTEN

    2 if that does not work just sit by them and trust ur instincts

    Leave them alone if you know they're strong enough to pull them self through it

    I normally help cheer them up.

    But it really depends on the person.

    If they want to be alone just listen

    i would try to cheer them up and let them get out their feelings, but if they want to be alone, i leave them alone and check up on them. =)

  • I let her know I'm there and then leave her alone for awhile.
