Really depressed
Discussion
The wife of a good mate from college has been struggling with depression. I just messaged him to ask if he as a particular app for his combine and he replies to say his wife had taken a turn for the worse, tried to take her own life several times and was nearly successful before Christmas, now has moved out and living with a homeless alcoholic. fk.
Any hints and tips I can pass onto him, it's a bit beyond my pay grade and level of expertise.
