Just checking on you. Seems you're in the same place I'm at, detached and holding. I think H 's dam bursting is a good thing. He has looked at what he has done and the damage he has caused. Reread The six Stages of a Mid Life Crises by hearts blessing, sounds like H might be moving into acceptance. Accept and validate his actuions and words. Reassure him he is ok.
