  • The thing that worries me the most is digital devices and internet access. In our house we keep tight controls on screen time and internet usage but the majority (if not all) of the other kids in their school have unlimited access to internet which means second hand exposure and there’s very little we can do about it. I can’t just stop them from having friends… it’s steessful

    I’m very prone to becoming depressed and recently found out that it’s tightly linked to a feeling of not having control over my life. I discovered this after my wife and I decided to make some changes on our dailly schedules to accommodate dailly gym sessions for me, after all other responsibilities are taken care off. Now I have something to look forward to eveyday of the week that I alone control.

    It changed my life. There’s something primal about lifting heavy stuff on top of having some alone time away from home (children demand a lot from us). Also looking better in the mirror as helped.

    This worked for me because exercise is something I’m passionate about. Perhaps it could work for your husband, having some regular activity he enjoys.

    Good luck
