I think it depends on how you retire, by choice or by mandate. I was forced to retire about 5 years ago due to my MS.

I was a work-a-holic. I loved to work. I made a medium income but could support us. I did not plan well for when the paychecks would stop.

I think that my stress is much higher in retirement because I don't have an off-shore bank account with a gazzilion dollars in it.

I wish all the time I could work again, mainly because that would mean I wouldn't have MS.

The bottom line is NO, I do NOT feel better once I retired.
