Also, to relate to your husband, taking medication is weird, especially if you're still fairly young (20's - 40's, and sometimes 50's). Like many of us expect to take those exaggerated cocktail of meds as seen in tv shows when we're 70+, but when it starts sooner than what we expected, a lot of us tend to feel like failures or that we're defective. It might be hard for him to admit it, but try talking to him about how he feels about being on medication to begin with and his condition overall. I know he has a therapist, but maybe sharing this with you could be a huge improvement, especially if he knows how much you love him despite his mental health so he doesn't feel like a burden.
Would you force/sneak your s/o to take medicine they need?
