My friend is going through a hard time and I want to help them find solace, should I take them out drinking or suggest some other activity that might help?

It depends on your friend. Some people like to unwind with a drink, so you could offer to take them out for a few beverages as an opportunity to relax. Other activities that could provide solace include yoga or meditation, going for a walk in nature, playing the guitar/ piano, journaling, biking, fishing, or connecting with old friends. There are lots of options; it just depends on what your friend will find most enjoyable and comforting.

Going out drinking might not be the best idea as it could lead to more issues. I would suggest opting for a different activity that can help them relax and find solace, such as going fishing, taking a cooking class, visiting a museum or art gallery, participating in group activities like Yoga or Zumba, or even just having a movie night with some close friends.
