Just let your friend know that you will be there whenever he or she needs you and that you will always listen to any problems they might have?

Not enough information. It depends on what the friend is discouraged about. A lot of times, you can't really "do" anything, especially in matters of the heart, but just be there. Treat them to dinner, take them to a movie, do something nice for them.

take him/her out for a drink. It usually works. If your under age then go to a sporting event. The object is to get them around other people that will make him feel better and not bring up why your friend is discouraged.

Spend time with your friend and really listen to the reasons for their discouragement. Stay positive with your responses. It helps to show you care when you provide their favorite foods, IE cook for them, invite them out, whatever! It just depends on you and how much you really care.

The best way to help is to listen to your friend when he/she speaks and make your friend feel like he/she can talk about anything to u and that will show what a great friend u are!

Remind them of a time that you spent together that was so funny. And while giving the play by play talk about what made that moment so special, them being there.

Go out to dinner and have a few drinks. Go to a spa. Go see a funny movie. Just hang out and be there for your friend. Usually that's all it takes. :-)
Good luck!
