W was raped by older brother repeatedly from age 11 to 15, father beat up mother on several occasions. W had PA and D me in 05. I DB from BD in 04 and after the D. OM was out of the picture abt 3 mo after D. W lost the house to foreclosure abt 8 mo after D. W went to rehab for addiction to hydrocodone and other drugs abt 3 mos after D.

We remarried in 07, 2nd M much better, however she has relapsed on pain killers several times. She was sexually attacked by a coworker, this triggered PTSD and shortly after was admitted to a mental hospital . Now she dropped the bomb again after two mos of therapy with a new therapist.

Can DBing work again w/mental illnesses?
