[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I must also note that I come from a pretty traditional country and since I wanted to be a mother so bad, I sort of...did not put that much effort into building a career as I naively thought my DH would be making enough to support us. That hasn't really panned out and I am so disappointed and sad and feel stupid.[/quote]

Yeah...that's on you for not vetting a partner with financial sense and a career that would get you the lifestyle you thought you deserved. [/quote]

OP here. DH actually got a raise now and makes 300k+ starting this year. However, my desire to not work has changed and years of being poor has made me risk averse and I want to have my own retirements savings etc.

I was the one super impressed with all you've accomplished but now I'm totally confused.  You said your husband couldn't support you until now...but he's in his mid-30s making 300k?  Not sure what kind of work he's in where he went from poverty to 300K but either way, if you're still depressed, I would see someone.  Because it sounds like you're living the American dream and you don't realize it! [/quote]
