<human>: I have been seeing a guy for about 2 months so far and have been having a great time.  Our very first date ended up lasting about 24 hours and we've seen each other a lot since then. I've met a lot of his friends, we have a great time together, and are complimentary in a lot of ways.  

The hesitation: after awhile he let me know that he's currently taking Zoloft.  On a separate occasion he shared with me that he was abused as a kid, and has had a really rough relationship with his family over the years (both the issues as kid as well as them not speaking to him over past SO choices), though they've worked at it and are a bit better now. Just in general from talking to him, he feels things pretty strongly a lot of the time.

Realizing that I have been #blessed, I have had a pretty smooth go of it.  I'm a generally happy, positive outlook person (I'm sarcastic and skeptical, but go about my daily life in a upbeat way).  I love my parents, we have a close, really great relationships.  I get along with a lot of people and had one friend describe me as an "emotional person whisperer."

What my issue boils down to is, I like this guy a lot so far. I enjoy spending time with him, like his friends, have great physical chemistry, and I want to keep seeing him. I don't know what to expect from his depression and his past.  It makes me nervous about how to act around him when he's upset, worry about what might set him off (not that anything has while I'm around him), and, b/c I'm a girl and project things to the future, what it would mean to really commit to a relationship with someone who has such serious baggage that I'm not used to handling.

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: What should I know about getting into a relationship with someone with depression?  As someone with little experience with personal relationships where the SO has a lot of heavy emotional baggage, what am I getting myself into?
