Maybe you could take a different approach. He may have withdrawn and felt guilty and then pushed you away.
Maybe you could tell him how you feel. Not looking for anything in return but just some honesty about how you feel. When I depressed I send mixed signals. I push people away but really just want to feel wanted and cared about.

I want to be there for him, but I feel like he just sees me as a burden or an extra chore. He's ignoring me now and it just makes me really sad. I don't want to lose him just like that, because he's very special to me. Does anybody have any suggestions or thoughts/comments?
