I recommend that he see some sort of practitioner to help him with his issues and take the guess work out of supplementing. I bet giving up smoking just on its own is a major undertaking and he's trying to quit alcohol and has the stress of his Aunt's death to boot, no wonder he's grumpy. Who knows how his system has been damaged from his lifestyle.
I can relate to his mood as you describe it. Every time I have a baby, my world falls apart. You would think it would get better as the baby sleeps more, but for me it just gets worse and worse. I went to see a ND and she thinks I have pretty bad adrenal fatigue. That explains why even though my lifestyle habits have improved, my behavior hasn't. He may have some healing to do, and if he does, you will probably have to get used to the grumpiness. Personally, I have been trying to do all the right things myself and I've been feeling worse the whole time. It may be a relief for him to have someone to work with and a plan of action to follow, if he would go for that sort of thing. He could also get his hormones checked then. Maybe he could use the money he's saving on not buying cigarettes and booze.
I sympathize with both of you, it's awful being in a bad mood all the time, and I don't think others are enjoying being around me much either. Healing is really hard.
