Do tell what made it a 5

Positives:

Got off drugs
Left alaska
Began learning something I enjoy for a job
Got a son on the way

Negatives:
Took a pay cut to move to Oregon
Job is great, but promises aren't happening and "training" has been incredibly difficult.
Baby's mom doesn't work and doesn't seem to understand the need for an additional paycheck in the home.
Have to take care of her 32 year old ass and figure out how to afford a baby.
Was doing great solo but in the worst financial situation since I got back with her ass.
She bitches and complains a lot. Something about not giving her any attention or something. I dont know I wasn't really listening.

How is this a 5 brother

2/5

While I managed to leave a job I hated for one I don't mind at all, it didn't necessarily lead to more money, but it is far less stressful on my life, which is what I wanted. After that though... things have kinda sucked. My wife is still my best friend, but her lupus combined with us working has pretty much left me with no sort of emotional support when I feel I need it. Man up, though, ya know. Along with that my youngest sister has had a lot of health issues that will most likely continue into the future, so I'm trying to help take care of my neice, but being an hour an a half away makes being present a task. I would say 1/5, but I always feel like if I don't pick something to be grateful for, life will take that too.

Lately it feels like we're all in a recession of empathy, because so many i know are going through so much that no one has any empathy to share.

I've burnt up my savings and am now in debt paying for rent, food, and everything else for two people. I'm now in debt and work 50 hours a week and looking for a second job. I'll essentially be working then go home to sleep for who knows how long. I had more money when I was on heroin. I'm 100% sober and sometimes steal food from stores because I have no other option. Well, there's food banks, but im on a diet so I'd rather get what I want.

She had a job but got fired because she had morning sickness and threw up at her desk then her boss said it was very unprofessional and doesn't represent "the brand" of a private practice family medicine clinic. Hasn't worked since.

We found out she has ostheo imperfecta and ehlers danlos syndrome but apparently a more milder case than it can usually get. But it's still pretty serious and very likely will get passed down to the baby. Average life span is 48 years old and her blood pressure is regularly in the 180s. It got up to 205 at the ultrasound appointment and they recommended her to go to the ER for risk of stroke.

There's a possibility the baby will die or the baby will kill her because of all this. Also very possible everything will be fine though.

There's more but I dont want to turn this into a therapy session.

I'm happy about the kid. I'm stressed what kind of life I can provide for that kid when my life is so difficult to maintain before it even arrives. I just tell myself people have managed to do it with even less than what I have. Lifes just been incredibly fucking stressful since march.

Is that even legal? Also wtf at firing a pregnant woman over morning sickness at a family medicine clinic
 
4.5.

Graduated with a 4.0 Masters, got promoted to Special Education Coordinator, took the wife to South Africa for her 40th. It was ALMOST perfect.

I think I gained about 20 lbs this year, so thatā€™s the one drawback.
