Does it ever get easier loving someone with mental illness?

This is not a rhetorical question. I would like to know if it will always be this difficult and hard? Is this what the rest of our life is going to be if we ever figure out if there is still going to be a we? I am really struggling with loving my wife and I feel horrible.

It depends on the illness. Some wax and wane over time. So there will be good days and bad days. Sometimes over long stretches of time. Other illnesses will get worse over time especially without treatment. And some will get better over time as well so it depends on what is wrong.
