How To help a Friend
- Make a Plan-Before talking with your friend, organize your thoughts and figure out what you want to say. Focus on a tone that's assertive, but not aggressive, and think about what resources you might need for ex: a parent, counselor, faith leader, etc.
- Present the Facts-Discuss about the changes you have seen in your friend. Tell them you miss them and are concerned about them.
- Listen-After talking about your side, listen to what your friend has to say about what you just said to him. Offer them help and keep.
- Continue the Conversation-Find out a time for you and your friend to follow up about the discussion, and them he/she know that you'd like to talk about the situation again.
