You are right, you need to get your head in the game at work. Make that right. It's important to you especially right now. I've been there, and it's not a happy prospect (almost lost it twice over all of this. My fault, but it was a lot more pressure I didn't need I think we've all heard these types of things, BRNR. It's not uncommon. The jello comment was interesting. He knows he's not right but is making life-altering decisions? That says quite a bit about the pressure he feels right now.

H really dominated the conversation
. Um. No he didn't. He ranted like a lunatic. You dominated it in the sense that you handled it very well. Kudos to you for keeping your cool for that long in the face of what he was doing and the level of energy he was putting into it.
You can see what a lunatic he is right now, right? Mediation is not likely with that type of person. As a friend once told me, "I can show you how to negotiate with 99% of the people out there for millions of dollars each. The one person that you cannot negotiate with is a crazy person." He used to be a divorce lawyer and quit that business because of what he saw and didn't like. He negotiates daily and teaches those skills to crowds of people at a time. And he was right, as much as I didn't want to admit it at the time.
Be cautious when dealing with your H at this time. His way of dealing with things is very unpredictable and somewhat irrational. It'll be very difficult to get agreements signed by him.
I know it's a tough road, but you're walking it well.
Peace, AJ
