Hey man, thanks for reaching out. First and foremost, please please please talk to someone about these thoughts [1]. You mean the world to your partner and your child. Your life is incredibly valuable even if it may not feel like it right now.
I'm a software dev with two young kids and I definitely understand where you are coming from. Having kids is so hard and it completely changes your lifestyle. But the way I look at it is this is a season of your life where your time allocation shifts, but there will be other seasons where the allocation looks different. We are both in our 30s and life is long, there are decades of productive time available.
So try to take a deep breath, recognize you have accomplished a lot (including that 500k, that is a big deal) and try to take care of yourself for the sake of yourself and your family.
You can email me at evan058@gmail.com if you ever want to chat.
