[quote=Anonymous]We've gone through three bouts of unemployment with DH. First was really short and moved to another job in the same company. One was 7 months and one has been permanent from. 9-5 job as he grew a consulting business. Each time I tried to really focus on communicating my feelings and not blaming him but expressing, owning, asking for help to deal or sometimes just letting them go. Not easy - refinancing this last time was a major headache with trying to prove consulting income. May least for us when I could express that I was scared, frustrated, sad, tired he could also express he was depressed, anxious, worried. It worked for us to take a quiet moment and remind ourselves we are a team and can work together but also that unemployment sucks and brings up a lot of emotions and fears. Focus on that and if he is the good DH you say I am sure he will rise to the challenge for himself and you.[/quote]
