I went from thinking he’s a terrible person to feeling sorry for him. Financial anxiety and depression is real

[andreamaser]

The way john just disarmed him and got him to stop talking about his wife and talk about himself and look at what he has and can do
Like damn, respect

[elizabetha]

I think I get what he is TRYING to say. I grew up dirt poor and I've really built something amazing and my husband is just racking up debt and acts like he could not care less. It's overwhelming.

[Cosmicvzn]

This guy even gave me anxiety listening to him!! But damn what actually lies beneath him makes completely sense, feel sorry for the dude. Hope he finds peace

[fdoeppen]

Wow, this man is carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders! God please give him the wisdom and the strength to be the person he needs to be.

[luisvargas]

Man I’m just 22 not married or anything and these episodes are therapy even for me

[SJ-qftz]

Man I went from thinking this guy was a tool to feeling so much empathy for him all in about 6 minutes. People are really complex and you cant just look a the surface emotion man. This was so eye opening

[lorim]

This was a great call. Digging into the caller’s core emotions instead of harping on her behavior was interesting to see unfold.

[alicemakarevich]

The ending made me tear up. What a strong man, for enduring this horrible thing that happened to his daughter, for enduring this all-consuming guilt and for calling and having the courage to be vulnerable.
I really hope things get better

[rizoo]

Shout out to all the dads/ husbands out there providing for their families for 30+ years and never complaining about it once.

[himynameiswaylon]

My blood pressure went through the roof listening to this call. I can't imagine how tense I'd feel living in that home. I hope for his family's sake he finds some peace.

[Paradoxology]

Healing is contagious. As he gets better, he’ll start seeing a side of his wife that he’s never seen before. This episode was deep.

Being home with 4 kids is NOT a summer vacation

[dy]

I think wifey is taking a beating. Not everyone is capable of earning 60 credits in 1 - 2 years while raising a family, holding down a job, taking care of a home and husband that is on the edge

[jakeadams]

with 4 kids, she's definitely not just sitting at home all day watching TV

[lilarose]

This guy is stressed and burnt out. He must feel like he’s drowning. She’s taken 10 yrs to get her bachelors degree but she has 4 kids and he works a ton of hours so she most likely takes one class a semester to balance all of her responsibilities. I don’t think that means it’s not her dream career. This poor man needs to save his life and get intense therapy to heal his trauma 🙏

[cess]

I actually like this caller. I totally understand the feeling of financial fears. I respect my husband’s feelings and anxiety about money. We go over a budget together and set boundaries and I want him to feel like he has a help mate not a dead weight.

[sobeliever]

I get what he means by desperate. People who struggle with money have a better appreciation of its value rather than those who never felt uncomfortable.

[longstoryshorts]

The ability of Dr. Delony to see through, no matter what the callers situation or initial description of it, to see the actual reason and pain is incredible! Not just in this episode of the show, but at any call he received. He is listening to what a person has to say and sees what is behind and real reason or problem is. Thank you so much for this show! ❤

[beebeelicious]

His story does not add up. He complains that she doesn't work, but then states that she works in a school and then she looks after the kids during hols.
