text: Lastly, I feel like this is the most important way of getting someones opinion on something to help you. When someone you know is feeling down and you do not know how to help them, you can ask other people for help on what to say or how to approach the situation . You could ask a friend, or someone you know well for advice on how to handle a situation. You want to help your friend feel better and happy but you dont know what to do because you dont what to make anything worst by saying something wrong. If you really need help and the situation is really out of control, you could go to professionals for help. Its always okay to ask others for help and their opinions so you will know what to do.
