In the era of technology and social networks, people often find virtual friends. During the communication process, various moments may arise. For example, a friend may experience grief or a traumatic event.
How can you help a person in such a situation so that he feels the value of friendship and relief?
The answer to this question will be given to you by the expert of the portal "MOS SMI" on issues of astrology, esotericism and psychology Elena Gutyro .
Call
If a person shares their experiences on social networks, try to offer to call them. A phone conversation can be more effective than correspondence.
The call gives the feeling that the person is nearby. It can calm and reduce anxiety.
Hearing
When you decide to contact a friend by phone, give him the opportunity to speak out. At this point, you don’t need to burden him with unnecessary information – it’s better to turn on silent empathy.
Help and expression of feelings
When a person has told you about a problem, you can offer to help them. Perhaps you can give them some useful advice or provide financial support.
If a person refuses help, it is better not to impose it. At this point, show the interlocutor that you understand him and share his feelings.
Gratitude
At the end of the conversation, it is worth thanking your friend for his honesty. He will definitely appreciate it and will want to resort to your support next time.
