Everything rolled into one: bi-polar, depression and anxiety

I've had all this going on for years, trying to find medication and dosage and i am over it. My partner has been incredibly supportive but i am starting to think she is at her wits ends. I am tired of putting on a happy face for work ....it is so hard. I cant sleep without pills at the moment as i am having issues of itchiness all over my body stopping me from settling. At work i am just hiding away in a storeroom and randomly crying. Worst thing is, i have always been joker, the one always laughing and joking. Keep up this facade is hard. I am a school teacher and even had to leave my classroom this week for a cry. My anxiety revolves around my wife and her not being here and i have a complete breakdown if anything affects the routine or if i am out of contact for extend times...that impacts her as well.
I am at my wits end and dont know where to go anymore.

Hello Braxiatel, and thanks for posting this comment.
When your spouse/partner has been supportive, you feel a small relief, but as soon as they don't give you the small attention, then problems in your mind start to begin and negative thoughts start happening, that's not your fault so please don't criticise yourself.
To be the person who jokes and makes everyone have a laugh, and then pretends to be happy, and your partner isn't there or they may start asking you 'what's wrong', how do you answer them and how can you get the routine to stay the same, unfortunately, it doesn't, your routine has been broken and creates trouble.
Can I ask you if the doctor has diagnosed you as it would be interesting to know.
I know how you are feeling because that always happened to me.
Take care.
Geoff.
