Although she might be having symptoms suggestive of depression they have to last for minimum of 2-3wks to make a diagnosis.Mos of the drugs available for it treatment have to be taken under medical supervision according to the severity of the condition -response to medication which is evaluated in the follow up visits.I suggest you take your friend to psychiatrist.Hope this helps.Take care.
