Sad that person has to live with that every day. Hopefully the person responsible was held accountable.

Do they have a job or are they on Government assistance?

Isn't one of the best ways to combat depression to be active (like work)? Obviously we see things differently but it seems like a whole lot of people are using excuses not to work and be carried by everyone else. Lots of things can cause depression, does that make it a reason to not be self-sufficient? Not sure it does but I guess there are some unique cases.

PS. The person I know is LAZY believe me.
