There is no perfect solution in dealing with metal health problems. It's always a case to case basis. Generally, though, a lot of people find it helpful to talk to a therapist to releive themselves of stress and anxiety. Others cope with mental health problems by picking another habit to stray their thoughts away that negatively affects their mental being. However, if you happen to know someone who is struggling with a mental health problem, it is best for you to let them know that you understand that they are going through a rough patch. Now, by saying this, you should not be condemning his situation or making light of it. Talk to them but know that they should be comfortably sharing things and not being forced in any way. However, sometimes an accepting presence is enough. A hug. A gentle pat. (That is, if the problem surrounds depression and anxiety, and the like)
