Allow yourself to : Grieve his mental health issues. Know that as much as you love him, that you can't make him better. Love him as he is. Engage him. Let him know that you care and that you are there for him. Small acts of kindness can some times go a long way when someone is depressed. Remind him of the things that are good about him. Take care.
