<human>:  How can I help my loved one get through depression?
<bot>: One of the best ways to help your loved one get through depression is by being an active listener. Let them know that you are there and willing to listen to them when they're feeling down. Make sure to be patient, understanding, and nonjudgmental. It's also important to offer encouragement and support. Encourage them to get professional help if necessary and offer to go to appointments or therapy sessions with them. Also, try to be active and do things with them that can help boost their mood, such as going for a walk, doing some light exercise, going to the movies, or just spending time together.
