Mental Health in Marriage

What should I do when the person I love is struggling with their mental health? What happens when the person I have decided to spend the rest of my life with is struggling with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, postpartum depression, eating disorder, or PTSD? Can I still love them if they may not be able to fully love me? If you are in this situation you may have asked yourself some of these questions or are in agony trying to decide how to move forward in your relationship. Well, you are not alone. About 1 in 5 people suffer from a mental illness, and for many individuals that 1 is their spouse. In this episode, we discuss signs that your spouse might have a mental illness, emotional and mental stressors, how to deal with mental illness in your relationship, self-care, and can your marriage survive a mental illness.
