Nadia: I have a friend who gets depressed at times. It ’s difficult to know what to do. I suppose it could happen to any one of us too.

Randy: Yeah – I had a mate – who was just like one of us – then things went wrong in his life and he became really ill.

Cherise: It is really upsetting when someone you know is ill – especially when they are so young. You feel really helpless – I guess you have just got to make sure that they know you are there for them.

Dion: Yeah but it's also really important that we don't judge people who are ill. My sister works with people who are mentally ill. You really need to educate yourself about these issues so that you can support your mate if they are going through problems.

Flawless: It's important to know about this stuff so you aren't scared by it.

J Rock: People need to be open minded and non-judgemental cos just like Randy's mate you never know who is going to be affected.
