Giving in to my illness

[Chevonne]

Hey,
So I've been fighting my mental health problems (a mix of bipolar disorder, seasonal affective disorder, social anxiety, panic attacks, depression, annorexia) for almost 10 years now and just at the point where I can really get it under control and learn to live a normal everyday life...I've run out of emotional energy to keep fighting.
When my problems kick in and I get the negative emotions I just kind of let them happen and submit rather than trying to pull myself out of it because I don't feel I can and it's getting harder to get the energy to do it.
Does anyone have any ideas of what I could do? I don't want to relapse and its taking a bit of a toll on my relationship
Thanks

I'm sorry to hear that you're finding things so difficult and you've run out of energy to fight it. Do you have professional support at the moment to manage your mental health problems?

I had a student mentor but that's only in term time and the councillors I've had in the past were useless
