At a loss for words

Forum: Communication with ADHD

I have a dilemma. I last saw my boyfriend almost a month ago. Last time we were with each other for the weekend. We went to dinner and did fun couples activities the entire weekend. Our weekend went well and we had a lot of fun. We made plans to see again in about two days. I get a text a few days later saying that he is going to self-isolate for some time because he isn't feeling well. His physician is out of town and can't refill his prescription, so he went to a new physician who prescribed something entirely different. He said the new medication is making him very emotional and he is having outbursts that he is going to self-isolate and focus on his classes for his master's program. He said he only needed a few days, so I gave him that.

 

Last time I checked in with him he was over at his parent's house because he thought being around family might help him feel better. Last time I called him he said he would call me back later. 

 

It has now been 3 weeks and I haven't heard from him since. It's unusual of him. We usually communicate or talk every other day or every few days. We are both in our late twenties and have been dating for 5 months. I don't have his family members numbers and he doesn't have my family members numbers. We have video-chatted with each other's families, but we haven't met each other's families as of yet. 

I have called him about once every day and texted him, but no response at all. He seemed to be in a terrible emotional state ( hopeless and sad) the last time we spoke. I've contacted him on social media, but I haven't gotten a response. I'm wondering if he checked himself into a ward or what happened etc. My heart is breaking because I don't know what happened and I'm hoping he is ok. 

How long can someone self-isolate? I'm trying not to think the worst. If he wanted to break up he would tell me, he wouldn't just leave without a trace.
