Helping others can make us feel better about ourselves and better connected to those around us.

Helping friends and family members in need
This can be as simple as getting them to talk about what's happening and listening to their problems and worries.

• Try not to interrupt them
• Don't feel you have to give advice or try to solve their problems
• Friendly silences give people time to think
• Encourage them to seek help if they need it
