    Islam - Marrying someone with mental illness (OP)




    To what extent would you go to marry someone who has mental illness? Any types such as bipolar, depression, schizophrenia, autism, anxiety, OCD etc. Of course it's different in each situation and severity. What if your potential spouse had one of these, is this something you will overlook or major red flag?

    that depends if the man is soft hearted nd religious he may be able to go smoothly with wife who is mentally ill.but for a man who expect his wife to smart nd active i doubt.even if he marry such he may opt for secod

    I agree jameelash. To a certain point!
    I have married both types of man and the first is definitely the way to go. The second is a straight up nightmare and I would never do that again! Lol
    And if they bring up the lame second wife business then it definitely a deal breaker. Like hey buddy just because I'm mentally I'll does not mean I cannot fulfill your rights is what I'd say to that...maybe I would choose not to. Though after that lame excuse if I ever heard one!
    Give me break. Seriously

    That's what I'm talking about. Nightmare!

    Well at least your track record is good. Nobody can fault you for that
    if you are 40 and divorced the chances of finding that pious person dramatically decrease...its like you have the plague.
    But I'm fine with it
    I have learned to love myself
    I'm kind of scared that marriage again would cut into my 'me time'. Lol
    May Allah grant us pious spouses. Ameen

    actually sister, there is a lot of social stigma attached to me because of my questionable past - and though those days are over for long loooong time now, my community doesn't forget...

    .... I still hear the taunts sometimes and it upsets me, but I just move on to the next distraction - like coffee, or cake. Something to forget the blues, you know

    Scimi

    EDIT: I know what you mean by the "cut into my ME time" - trust me I sometimes feel the same way too. haha
