How can I support DH?

DH confessed to me last night that his mental health has been bad for at least 6 months. Apparently he had chosen his exit and bought some of it.
Thankfully a friend of his noticed and got him talking. He has also mentioned to a mutual friend of ours, again I'm just grateful he found someone to talk to.
He is speaking to a therapist, he's due his second session this week.

Unfortunately, I did not make his pros list. He hates my job and admitted as well last night that he's shallow enough that my weight bothers him. (I am overweight but not huge).
He does still love me and we talked a lot about stuff.

How can I support him though?.all I want to do is ask if he is ok. Which probably won't help. I want to check up on him all the time.

We have some tricky behaviour from our boys at the moment. 9yr old has ASD and 5 yr old is being tricky too. So things are hard.

I just don't know what to do.

Wow, that’s very hurtful of him to say it, especially when it’s to benefit him.
Id be very careful of him saying he loves you, it might be to make you hang around while he decides.
