How not to help someone (Emotionally)

1. Point out the obvious.
2. Give your opinion.
3. Don't listen.
4. Hang up the phone on said person because they were just trying to explain that pointing out the obvious only stresses them out more.
5. Rehash the obvious every day.

This is always tough! Wish everyone could be helpful and they understood these points!
