How to Help a Depressed [Program]

Engage the depressed [program] in conversation and
listen carefully. Do not disparage feelings expressed,
but point out realities and offer hope. Do not ignore
remarks about suicide. Report them to the depressed
[program]'s therapist. Invite the depressed [program] for
walks, outings, to the movies, and other activities. Be
gently insistent if your invitation is refused.

I hope this is on a laptop and not a proliant ML.
