On a bad day, your friend might not feel like leaving house. Depression can zap out all energy and increase the desire to self isolate, but you have to encourage them to stick with the therapy. Same goes with medication. If your friend wants to stop taking medication because of unpleasant side effects, be supportive, but encourage them to talk with their psychiatrist about switching to a different anti represent or stopping their medication entirely. Take care of yourself too

Because you mentioned therapy, and do you think therapy is really accessible to everyone, given the social stigma that still is very predominant in our society and also the fact that therapy can be, like, really costly at times, what do you think about this? Do you think that everyone is it accessible, or how can it be made accessible if it's not? Yeah, that's my question

Well, Aishani, I think there are a lot of free resources and affordable therapies that are available online right now. And about stigma so there's a lot of stigma about going to a therapist or having a mental health problem, but basically, people don't the problem is, basically, people don't get a push from society. They need to go to a therapist and get better. What do you do when you feel sick? You go to a doctor. Right
