[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am starting to feel anger/frustration because its been 4 months since my spouse lost his job yet he hasnt sent out a single resume. He says its because he has extreme anxiety around interviewing and doesnt want to apply to just any job. As far as I can tell he spends most of his time surfing or watching TV. We don't talk about it because it quickly becomes a fight with him saying if I think he's a bum I should just leave him. How would you approach this situation?[/quote] Men can suffer from depression, you know. It sounds like he's seriously depressed and you mostly only know how to make it worse. Have you talked to him about what he wants to do? Acknowledged that his losing his job may not reflect adversely on him personally? That he might want to see a professional? That you're prepared to shoulder more of the financial responsibility for a while and that's what you signed up for when you married him? [/quote]
