Some patients are ignorant of household chores and indifferent to their families; Losing one's job and losing one's economy**. If one of the parties to the marriage is in such a state, it is of course difficult for the married life to continue.

The trajectory of life is deviated. Many people have a change in their lives because of a certain disease. Obsessive-compulsive disorder is also, once you suffer from this disease, maybe all the plans in this life will be changed, including career, life may be ruined, and regret for a lifetime.
