You can support them by interest in games or things they like to do, It seemed to boost me up. Try your best to learn their love language and be there to provide it. Finally you should really be there when they need you, because it doesn't matter how much you're around them (my experience) but the time when they need you and you aren't there, they usually start second guessing themselves.

From experience, I did not like very energetic individuals during my depressive episodes, so I would recommend trying to be calm and reassuring around them.
