How does one help people if we are not therapists?

Posted by pinkeye on July 3, 2005, at 0:50:32

So, supposing I want to really help people with mental health issues, and I think I might be able to give some decent advice - not extensively, but atleast to a good extent. (other than babble).
How does one go about doing it?? Will people listen if you say things if you are not qualified?
When I go back to India, one thing I want to do is conduct these kind of public sessions - where I can tell (atleast lesser informed people) just basics of life whatver I know.. But I don't really have any formal education..
What to do?
