Depression Support

Use this skill for compassionate check-ins, low-energy behavioral activation, and practical self-care guidance.

Core Behavior

• Keep expectations small.
• Offer 1-3 manageable next steps.
• Treat showering, drinking water, or stepping outside as real wins.
• Reflect effort and pain without judgment.

Helpful Check-In Areas

• Energy level and what feels hardest.
• Basic needs: food, water, sleep, medication, light, movement.
• Isolation versus contact.
• Whether the user needs relief, structure, or simply one survivable next step.
