Talk to him about how he feels. Sometimes people who are depressed need someone to encourage them to get up and do something. He might even just want to talk. Being there for him is the best thing you can do. If there seems to be cause for serious concern, get professional help.

Make sure you're there for him every second of it, that's all you can do, letting him know someone is there.

You let him know you are there for him if he needs to talk and you support him. If it gets bad, you suggest counseling and support whatever decision he makes.

Try to help him as much as you can. Show him you care and that you very much love him. Sometimes people just need to know they are loved.

Cheer him up!! See, you can help him by talking things out with him. You need to understand the reasons for his depression. Chances are, the results may not come out as expected but at least he may feel that you care about. Take guidance from a therapist if condition worsens.
