[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would expect that he isn’t going to work again.  
Do whatever you need to do to be able to live on your income.  You probably need to move to a smaller home or to somewhere you can make more money.  Maybe both.  Lean in to your own career and give him all SAHP duties.  Enjoy![/quote]

What a negative, fatalistic post. Of course any couple should be able to get along on one income if necessary but advising OP to move to a new house? Assuming the DH will [i]never[/i] work again? You're racing [i]way[/i] ahead of where things actually are for OP and the DH. If she just gives up on him like you suggest, he will possibly sink back into anxiety and unhealthy habits, when she notes above that those things have been improving. [/quote]

Pp here.  I don’t see this as negative and fatalistic.  I see it as leaning into her own career now that she has a SAH spouse.  I mean, who knows when she will have this opportunity again?  
I would search far and wide for exactly the job that I wanted and move to wherever that is.  I would expect him to be a full on partner.  
If he doesn’t want to move because he wants to find his own work, then I would expect him to be more actively looking for work.  [/quote]
