Is this normal?

Is it normal for someone with depression to ignore you?

It's normal for them to become withdrawn and insular, yes

I think you need to give us a bit more context.

Do you mean completely ignoring you, not responding to any verbal or physical prompts?

Do you live with this person?

I don't live with this person and by ignoring me, I mean ignoring my texts and calls.

Yeah that's classic depressive episode. I would send a text saying "I'm guessing you're probably low today/at the moment - I'm here to help if you want to talk, or anything else I can do." Then just leave them to it.

Yes, because everything can feel exhausting, committing to anything feels exhausting, you don't really think anyone cares, you just want to hide away and be left alone, and time passes differently. It's almost definitely nothing personal

Yes, very normal. Don't pester this person, but maybe a quick text or card to say you are there if they need you.
