Hey guys, so recently I got into a relationship about a month ago with a guy I really like. He treats me really well and I'm really happy to be his. But since dating him he has told me he has depression issues. I didn't really think too much about it at first, I figured I could just support him through it if need be. But the past week or so it has REALLY gotten bad. At first he was complaining that we couldn't spend more time with each other (it's difficult to make a lot of time due to our schedules). I made an effort to see him more but then he started becoming distant towards me to the point I don't really feel like a girlfriend anymore. He had a long talk with one of his buddies last night and he texted me that he is thinking of seeking counseling and getting antidepressants. He says that I deserve to be treated better and that he doesn't want to waste my time. He says he needs his space to figure out his life and that a relationship isn't a good idea currently. He makes it sound like this is only temporarily until he figures out stuff, so I'm not sure if he is implying he just wants a break or an actual breakup.Β
I've read a lot of LOA stuff to get an ex back for another person but I'm not really sure how to apply the LOA for this situation. It looks like it's teetering on being over, but I really care for this person and want to make things work. It scares me when he says that things can't work "right now" but I know about depression, sometimes it takes a long time before someone is back on track. I'm worried that this is it Β I'm sort of in a state of panic right now. What can I do to make him less depressed and want to stay with me?
Also, I forgot to mention he has self-esteem issues. I know he's had troubled thoughts like he's not good enough for me. So this might be part of why he is pushing me away. Β
