Leads with "Kryptonite"

These are dramas in which one (or both) of the leads has a fatal weakness such as a phobia, mental illness, or disability that interferes with their lives. 

I am including supernatural weaknesses but only those that are chronic long-time conditions or weaknesses that consistently create conflict for the heroes.
