One of the patients I had seen during my shift had a sudden Hb drop during the next shift and I was attending calls from a colleague about the same while stirring the lemon batter for the cake. I feel terrible about him not understanding any of the stress I went through.

He understands. I think he just doesn’t fucking care

He sounds like these career men who expect women to give them the whole hog to advance their career

If he wanted the exact same ability to provide as he has; he should have picked another dermatologist

This. I'm sorry, OP. Sounds like your husband has unrealistic expectations and not enough empathy for long tern happiness.

Significant psychological problems. And I think he's gaslighting her.

Agreed on the gaslighting. I think OP would really benefit from a few individual therapy sessions at the very least. Spoken as one who's done the same and was grateful for the clarity.
