Create a Loving Relationship

I love someone who has a serious mental illness.

How can I prevent our relationship from being all about mental illness?

  1. Participate in normal, fun activities together. Watch movies, play games, go for walks, etc.
  2. Establish “no health-talk” times.
  3. Work together on necessary tasks, such as cooking, grocery shopping and gardening.
  4. Create routines and schedules that encourage living healthfully and well.
  5. Always be respectful, kindand supportive. And expect the same in return.
