In Nikki’s Corner “My friends Carys and Matt always tell me I can talk to them anytime I need to. The best thing they do is make me laugh. So, if you’re worried about your friend, your friendship is really what they need. It’s the little things that remind someone they aren’t alone”
In Celine’s Corner “The most important thing is to reassure your friend that you are there for them, though it’s also important not to impose your ways of feeling better on them. Some people might not want to go on nights out when they’re feeling low. Everyone’s mind works differently”
