 He is going through a tough time, I recently got made redundant and it felt like a bereavment, I knew my world was not really going to crumble but for a time I lost all sence of reality, I worried about money and my house, car, cats in fact everything as we tend to work in order to live the life we want.
Give him space to get his life in order and to make sence of all that is happening to him, if the relationship is strong it will survive and if not well that is what is meant to be.
Hard to do I know but you just got to let him work things through and let him keep his dignity and be the friend he needs right now.

Obviously he is depressed and keep in contact with him from time to time. And when he is ready you may be able to reconnect again. Good luck!
