Would you almost break up with someone over this..?

I was diagnosed with depression about two months ago and I was dating this guy at the time (we'd already been together for about 7 months) and he was really kind and helpful at first and was determined to get me through this. Things just kept getting harder though. I'll admit I was a pain. I was so sad and angry most of the time and just not fun to be around and I always got defensive and would pick fights over silly things and plus I was too clingy towards him. At the same time, his dad and his mom were getting a divorce and his dad also has depression and my boyfriend has gone through hell because of it. I'm dealing with my depression way better now though and we nearly broke up but we're still together now and things are back to normal. Just curious, would you nearly break up with someone over that?
