One of my best friends has a history of falling into really deep depressions. He goes one to two times a week to a therapist but recently he had planned on terminating those visits. He was so happy for a while because he fell in love with a guy that is so perfect for him (he is gay). Unfortunately, that perfect guy is leaving the country for a whole year for his job. My friend is devastated and he is saying that he will seclude himself from the world and go off where no one knows where he is because he is afraid of himself. He says he's going to get more help for himself, I'm assuming it means he's decided not to terminate his visits to his therapist.

I've never had a T, so honestly I'm kind of stumbling around in the dark here. Does he need me at all? Would my attempts at comforting him be futile, should I just leave it to his therapist? Any advice as to anything I could do to help him would be much appreciated because I am so so SO worried about him right now
