[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is anyone else spiraling? I’m a fed and my job seems up in the air which makes it incredibly hard to do my job right now. I debate just quitting and becoming a sahm but it seems like such a huge jump. Nothing seems to really have purpose and I’m always tired (mostly because I start work at 6am). No vacations planned due to finances. Lost 70k last week in the stock market (not even part of my 401k, which was likely much much worse). It’s really hard to plan for the future because I don’t know what it looks like (like summer camps for kids or vacations).

Dh and I now argue because he likes Trump, which is probably the worst thing that’s happened currently in my life. We had an incredible marriage and now there’s this awful orange stain on it.

Everything seems like it’s up in the air. I really thought we had a good life before this mess. And before you all come at me, I’m a moderate. I haven’t felt well represented in politics for years. [/quote]

So, it's  really your husband that is your problem.  If you think that isn't the problem, you are not a moderate.  You were also ok with this, is that what  I  am picking up?

Get on the reddit thread  "I didn’t think the leopards would eat my face." You'll have some comraderie there. 
Regarding life plans- don't change anything- wait and see what happens, then- adjust your spending and lifestyle. [/quote]

Op here. Yeah I think if my husband had my back I would be ok. He’s always been my best friend, the perfect husband, perfect father, cooks, cleans, and is kind. He is now cheering on the Fed firings and supports Trump. He’s always been a fiscal conservative/social liberal. Maybe from the outside it looks like they’re getting rid of wasteful spending, but I’m on the inside and I can see the wanton cruelty of doge.  Nothing about it makes sense even from a financial standpoint. And anytime I try to talk about what’s going on, he starts going on about Biden.

I can’t give up a long marriage with 3 small kids but how can my husband support all of this?!!![/quote]

You need to stop listening to NPR.  And/or get off social media completely.

What matters most is:  your family.  And your family revolves around your marriage.   Isn’t that more important right now, than the constant political outraged pushed on you by media?
