He was having panic attacks. He was going through financial problems. He wondered at the age of 50, how would he manage his family. How would he make sure that his family was safe? He did not have the strength and stamina that he had at the age of 24 when he started his financial life. But was getting anxious helping or was it getting worse? It was getting worse! But his supportive wife told him to focus on creating a new business even if it was small rather than focusing on his entire life. She told him that he did not have to worry about the children.

She told herself, she was incapable and that’s why she could not take a stand against anyone. She had to break that net! Or else her depression was increasing. Her husband had become very supportive and the kids also supported her. But she kept herself isolated. When she started breaking the thought process and focused on how everyone was caring and how much she had done for the family she was able to come out!
