Thanks everyone for your good wishes and suggestions.
Unfortunately, UrbanFool, the shifts my husband works means he can't commit to any classes cos they change from week to week.
There's lots of barriers in his way but the biggest one as I see it is his fear of failure and lack of self -worth.
He's afraid to take any action so just puts it off. He says he'll look for other jobs, but doesn't and then goes back to work after being out with stress, until the next time when it all builds up again.
I'm really sounding negative I know but this is a bit of a vent for me too.
I'll really try to have more faith.
