Ask questions to get a sense of the problem or issue, but the main thing is to listen to them. You don't have to have all the answers, and don't assume that your friend wants advice - they might just want to talk so that they can work it out for themselves. If your friend has a medical or mental health issue, a good way to offer support is to learn about what they've been diagnosed with. Being interested in what they're going through shows you care, and that you plan to stick around no matter what's going on. Ask them what they need. If you're worried about someone and you want to be there for them, ask them what they need. You'll then know what they find helpful during tough times, and you can offer them support in a way that's genuinely helpful. Hugging your friends is a great way to show you care for them. Physical contact can be really comforting, especially when someone feels alone.

Jim used to sit next to his father and listen to his wonderful stories about African tribes and mysterious celebrations. Jim’s father told him about the beautifully coloured masks that Africans made of wood and showed old photos to his son. During those stories, Jim’s mind was travelling to the amazing continent. Dad and Jim never got bored of talking about local traditions, languages, dances and festivals. In fact, they sometimes got so excited that they went on talking for hours. Jim’s mum and his sister sometimes got rather tired of listening to them. Jim’s most valuable possession was a small wooden figure that his dad gave him when Jim turned eighteen. “I’ll go to Africa one day,” Jim told to himself.
