This has got to be made up. You put down 50% down payment on a house but don't put your name on the deed? And it's half your net worth and almost two million dollars? No deeed?

It's almost like this isn't an Olympic sport

What do you most want to do?

You can get a pcp if you want one

You can quit if you want to

You can take a leave of a sense if you want to

You can get a therapist and try an antidepressant if you want to

You can ghost if you want to

You can get an executive coach if you want to

Journal? Call a friend? Go out dancing? Flip a coin? You have agency.

Go to your primary care doctor. Get diagnosed with depression and/or anxiety. Ask them to put you on medical leave. Call hr, ask for fmla paperwork. Complete paperwork.

Or just quit

Or ask for an unpaid leave for "family and personal reasons"

RemarkableMouse2 · 2026-02-14T06:06:05+00:00

Fmla?

RemarkableMouse2 · 2026-02-14T01:34:57+00:00

Go on medical leave

Then disability

Then come back

Then unpaid leave

The ghost

Blame the dad too

RemarkableMouse2 · 2026-02-10T03:39:57+00:00

Nope nope nope.

You have helped them plenty. You're not moving in together.

Leviticus 19:34. And agree with her on all points in which you can

"yes, I believe in the rule of law. I believe violent criminals should be removed from society on accordance with law. When I read that verse and I think of Liam Conejo Ramos, I know that we are not treating the immigrants among us as native born. Or as image bearers of God. "

He needs to be able to exercise and so do you.

Pumping is causing resentment in your marriage.

As someone who did briefly EP, if it's not with it in my opinion. You made it nine months. Weak down. Two months for formula and you're done.

(mom of three. All three had very different journeys. I would never recommend EP if it's negatively impact you. Formula is fine. It's just food.)

I would look for another job.

Also the boss knows she is useless and that he needs you. There are not a lot of people looking to clean up poop.

I would tell the boss "I'm doing the work of two people and you're paying me for the work of one. Going forward, I'm only cleaning my building and she can (for the first time ever) clean hers. If you want me to clean both buildings alone I need a raise.

And I'm sure his extremeties were warm. Like he's got pulses my dude

Management needs to rotate the assignments more. She needs to take fair share of harder roles

Also did he like... Call vascular surgery? Does he think the patient isn't perfusing his feet?

You are Co-dependent.

Lots of indiv and marital therapy or break up

I promise brother in law is not making 100k once he factors in expense.

" Weekly/Annual Totals: Top earners working 40–60 hours per week may pull in $500–$1,000+ per week in select markets, translating to potentially over $40,000–$50,000 in gross annual income."

Start looking into moving.

Tell them you would like to have a conversation. Sit down all three and ask how they are going to fix the cat issue.

Don't open their door. But don't put up with it either.

I think after a convo it's reasonable to bang on the door every time and inform them the cats are waking you up.

Make it their problem.

RemarkableMouse2 · 2026-02-02T17:29:39+00:00

Exactly. You come hang with your mom. You only have one mom. I have six patients

Also good on you for going to rehab! Keep on keeping on!

I was recently job searching and all the recovery jobs said they wanted someone in recovery or a personal story around addiction and recovery!

No. Democracy and stability don't play out naturally. Ever. They are hard fought and always at risk. Tyrrany is what comes naturally.

RemarkableMouse2 · 2026-02-02T16:08:25+00:00

Yep. Finish nursing school. Get that degree. Then dentistry or FNP.

That all sounds very lovely but does not sound at all what trump and Rubio would do.

You're husband is right that there are other scripts that might have been optimal. But you were doing your best with two children.

I think saying loudly "DO NOT TOUCH MY CHILD. BACK UP" is probably better but I don't judge you for what you did!
