I need help getting a close friend through a depression

[TheGemProject]

Hey guys
My friend, (Not putting name)
Loves to play MCSG, and We've had some great and funny times together.

Recently, He fell into a depression and I just wanted to ask you all what I should to get him through it.
I'd hate for him to hurt himself or do any kind of substance abuse.
I just want him to get through this

What was the depression caused by? Parents? School? I suggest you get him to talk to Kids Help Phone (Canada: 1800-668-6868).

Erm... Try to do something nice to him.

probably the best thing to do is always be there and help him through it. if it becomes serious call kids helpline for the region of where you live.

Take him on a wild vacation and do everything he loves and do your best so he doesn't remember

I literally just had a mental breakdown and I'm in tears as I write this. I felt like killing myself but my friend @AmyGlitters helped me through it by telling me that people do care and I'm not useless and my family are abusive but it's okay because I have friends. I love you Amy <3

He's fine now xD

People overuse the word depression way too often.. :/

Woah
okay, err
First off, don't kill yourself!
Just remember that it is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Kept/keeps me away from it when my depression got/gets bad. (I am clinically depressed, I also have seasonal affective disorder)
And the guys at MCSG will always help you up (just ignore the trolls)
