朋友有憂鬱症及妄想 - 憂鬱症

※ 引述《heartplus (plus)》之銘言：
: 一位朋友幾個月前診斷出有憂鬱症
: 已在精神科就醫
: 最近打了幾次電話給我
: 內容是說一個"虛幻的人物"
: 並且與這個"人"在談戀愛
: 可以請問大家應該要如何應對嗎？
: 如果表示認同 我擔心她會更陷入自己的幻覺中
: 一直以為真的有這件事
: 但如果戳破 我又怕太刺激她
: 煩請大家告訴我該怎麼做才好

sorry I can't type chinese... (if you have any questions, feel
free to email me.)

my opinion is "accept her belief" but this doesn't mean you agree with
her beliefs.

try to see the world from her stance; that is, live in the same world
with her. when she talks about her 'lover' to you, you shall react to her
in the way you believe what she said is true, but persuade her to give
you a chance to see her 'lover'. e.g., "how does he look? can I see his
picture?" "invite him to hang out with us. I really want to meet him and
see if he is a nice guy."

if she can't give you a "proof" there is a 'real' person whom she has crush
on. Still, DON'T act the way that she is sick or mentally ill...
just support her, listen to her, and give her time to let herself figure
out what in earth happens on her... and then give her an advice to
talk this to her psychiatrist.
