Those with deep depression tend to avoid other people PO3 (Join to see) for many reasons. Close friends tend to recognize changes in people behavior. Don't expect the depressed to openly ask for help. Good friends and close family members need to be able to coax the despondent person to communicate. If that is not successful and you suspect suicidal plans are being made, it is best to contact medical professional with expertise in suicide.
