The authors explain why marital disharmony when one spouse has a primary affective disorder is difficult to treat but suggest that such couples can be treated successfully if the therapist is flexible and sets realistic goals. Because of the variability of the disease and the many unsubstantiated etiologies associated with it, the authors recommend a modified general system theory approach to treatment that includes a combination of psychotherapy and somatotherapy.
作者解释了为何当一方配偶患有原发性情感障碍时，婚姻关系不和谐难以治疗，但他们也指出，如果治疗师灵活且设定现实的目标，这类夫妻是可以成功治疗的。由于该疾病的多变性以及与之相关的许多未经证实的病因，作者推荐一种改良的通用系统理论治疗方法，其中包括心理治疗和躯体治疗相结合。
