Gurjeet shares how to give someone a helping hand when their mental health starts to slide, using the "The Golden Rules" as a simple guide. We talk about what to say, how to listen without trying to fix everything, and where boundaries protect both your friend and your own mental health. She also gets into:
• Why friends and coworkers often spot changes first
• A quick check for changes that are intense, long-lasting, and disruptive
• The journaling prompt on times we have shown up
• Say what you see with clear, concrete observations
• Show that you care through tone, time, and practical support
• Hear them out with open questions and fewer solutions
• Know your role by setting boundaries and respecting capacity
• Connect your friend with therapist search tips and local resources
