Mental illness affects many people. Still, it’s often a difficult topic for many people to talk about.

Even if kept hidden, mental illness impacts every facet of a person’s life, as well as those around them. It often has a devastating influence on relationships and marriages. Not only does it frequently lead to divorce, but if a parent has mental illness it also impacts child custody cases in significant ways.
