Correct Jen, he does need to get out of bed and going in the day, because the good stress is healthy for him, meaning he is up, moving, getting his mind active. So if he is removing good stressors because so many bad are sitting within him, you both to isolate and find some of these bad stressors and remove them instead, thus replacing back the good stressor to get out of bed, showered, shaved and motivated. Once motivated, then work on one emotion at a time. He has the tools and information to do this from the course, he just has to want too. Tell him not to try and solve big problems, but instead go little. Baby steps is how we move back into leaps, then bounds, then running. Kinda like crawling before we walk. That is what he must do now. He is putting more bad stressors within him, just thinking to large at the moment, putting himself down because he can't cope with big things, big tasks, bigger issues... because he is aiming to far. I know, I had to walk this same path. Start at baby steps... something very little, chip away at it and remove bad stressors, trauma, little by little. Find a little resolution each day, over a month that adds up. As more and more trauma is chipped, instead of having to take baby steps, he is then taking leaps and bounds, because he has that much more room to do so, thus taking chunks out of his trauma at that point.

You see, the initial getting going is the hard part, because we all aim to high at first. Step back, get him to slow down, and look at little pieces of emotions that he can resolve, find reason and discuss, so he no longer fears something, and turns fear into just a bad memory. It works Jen, he just has to see it... start little and it progresses into bounds before he'll know it.
