We all take things PERSONALLY. It’s often hard not to especially if it feels like it really IS personal.

When a friend or family member opens up to us about something tough they're going through it can be really hard to know what to do or say. How can we show them that we're there for them? How do we let them know we support them? What can we say that will help?
