What kind of impact does mental illness have on a relationship?  A lot of stress and disconnection, if its not managed with care.  

Today, Nick and I get real, honest, and vulnerable as we open up about one of ours sons who struggles with a mental illness.  It is one of the most challenging things we face as a couple.  If we didn't have a few skills in our back pocket to draw upon, our marriage could have easily suffered.

Today we will discuss the differences between hallucinations and delusions, both of which our son suffers.  We discuss natural defense mechanisms that don't work and some that help keep things steady.  And finally, we will discuss some of the things that really help us get through it keeping our love in tact.
