"An invaluable resource . . . For Christians dealing with the challenges of mental illness in their spouse, this is a must-read." - BlueInk Reviews, starred review

Many books exist to help the mentally ill or addicted. But this book is here to help you.

Struggling spouses may abandon their relationships from sheer exhaustion. This book helps you regain strength and find healthy ways to move forward with a unique blend of Christian perspectives and research-based insights.

Each chapter speaks to a common frustration or question, including:

• Can I survive this?

• How can I start feeling like myself again?

• It's not fair!

• My spouse is walking all over me!

• I'm totally drained and afraid.

• My hopes for my life are unraveling.
  

As you explore each topic, you'll cherish the wise Bible quotations, life application insights, and the colorful, often humorous stories from the authors' thirty-five-year marriage. Discover that you are not alone as you peer into the authors' inner lives and thoughts as they experienced gut-wrenching anguish and the exhausting effects of mental illness on a relationship.

Mental health professionals and spiritual advisors contributed to the design and contents of this meticulously reviewed resource with one objective, stated in the book:

"If spouses of the mentally ill or addicted can be spiritually strengthened and learn practical things they can do independently, more marriages can be saved."
