Support dynamics.. Personal thoughts..
Countering Isolation.
"May I do "x thing" for you" to something as simple as "I am thinking of you" can go far enough so say it.
Stretch this out. It sucks to be reached out to at the beginning of a crisis and left alone in the weeks and months following.
Affirmation.
As in in lieu of criticism. I.e. Advice.
Confidentiality.
"Jame is sending prayers/advice" is just not what you want to hear before you've been able to share with said parties your personal version of the story.
"At least.." or "all that matters is.."
Nope nope nope nope.
Consent and choices.
Theirs, not yours.
Validation.
"I believe you", and "I'm sorry this happened to you".
Validation may include empathy so long as one's experience does not need to reflect your own in order to be valid.
