Boyfriend suffering with depression

Please can anyone give me some advice. My bf has depression and I don't know how to help him as he is pushing me away.

I have only been with him for 6 months but I love the bones of him, he is my world so I would never walk away from him. He is pushing me away as he says I don't deserve this.

I haven't seen him for a week as he wont let me see him, he never messages anymore. I asked him if he wants me to leave him alone and he said he doesn't know as he doesn't have any feelings.

Do I respect his wishes and leave him alone? Will he come back to me when he's better?

I feel so heartbroken, wish I could help him 😢

Hi, going through something similar myself... I've gotten the leave me alone but I've insisted I'm not leaving him.... all you can do is offer support without him getting angry... make sure he is safe...
