dont worry about the setbacks. those happen and what you need to do is make sure you overcome those. What you need to do most, is to prove to yourself that you are a new person. not just to your wife, but to you. As Michelle mentions in her books, is your last R is going to follow into the next one. So if you don't really complete your change, and you fall back into the old bad habits, then this whole event in your life was for nothing, and you will just fall into another R and have the same problems.
So, I know that this is hard, but you can do it. It's not for her, it's for you.
Remember, that a lot of people get into depression during the winter. There is less sunlight, which can cause mild depression and because it's colder, we stay inside more too, which means even less sun. So, continue to get out, and be around positive people.
i was watching a preacher on tv, and he was an inspirational speaker, and talking about how we need to put ourselves in the presence of positive optimistic people. If we have friends or family that are negative, then that is what we will end up being (if we surround ourselves with them). It is so much easier to be brought down, then to be brought up.
So, if you think getting a part-time job will help you, then go for it. Make sure it is something that you enjoy, or at least enjoy the people.
Hey, and don't fret about living with your parents. My H did that too. He was 30 when we finally got in an appartment. So your not the only one! Sometimes we just have to do what we have to do, but know that it is not forever.
