How would you respond if a coworker shared a personal struggle with you? Would you tell them that's not appropriate for the workplace or would you treat them like a friend?

It depends on what the situation is. If its something that I could assist them with. Then I will assist them. But if I cant, I would point them in the direction where they can get help.

I would treat them like a friend, right or wrong that's how I was raised.

A little of both—your work family is important. You spend more time with them than your family most likely. Discuss it over lunch or take a 15 minute break. If they choose you to be the one they asked for help, I would hope that you would take the time to listen.
