The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, perhaps?

Yeah, that sounds like it - have you read it? Worth the read?

Whether H is on meds or not, you may want to look into The Ultramind Solution by Mark Hyman. Depression doesn't happen because the brain is deficient in Zoloft or Lexapro or Prozac. Ultramind solution's quizzes (and subsequent blood tests) proved in my case deficiencies in certain amino acids and their affects on certain neurotransmitters. Buying Amino acid supplements worke wonders and are inexpensive, too. Also check out Testosterone levels. Big factor in middle age depression.

Thanks! Great suggestions. H is completely anti-med, so this may be an interesting way to go.

'Overwelmed' - maybe this could be helpful for you too, since you were thinking your H is suffering from depression too. Also still check out www.amenclinics.com. Men seem to be a little more interested in the scientificness (is that a word?) that brain scans give as compared to just the usual meds/pyschotherapy.
