Tier One
Help them. This might not be how you're thinking, but how they're thinking. Or, neither of you may know the answer, and you need outside advice. Some of us have natural intuitions and don't need much outside advice, except in knowing themselves and acknowledging their talents.
Tier Two
You don't really have to 'do' anything, but be a friend. Be normal. Talk and listen to them.
Tier Three
Be an agreeable acquaintance. You can share space, see each other, but interaction is not so important.
Tier Four
Leave them alone.
Anything outside of this hierarchy - coercion, dishonesty, nonsense (saying things that you can't back up or are illogical), antagonism (including arguments) is enemy territory. They're not like normal people. When they need to heal, anything other than peace isn't an option.
