Why do I keep pushing people away from me? How do I stop?

It feels like every chance my brain gets to sabotage a relationship I have it takes it. And I really don’t realize in the moment if I’m being mean or snarky to someone until they tell me that I was later down the line. I recently had one of the worst depressive episodes of my life and i called my boyfriend 5 times and he wouldn’t pick up. So what do I do? I text him 16 times saying that i’m giving up and that he really should be there for me. For context, he just started clinical rotations for med school. now granted i called him after work but he was with friends and didn’t see my messages. i shouldn’t have been mean to him over text.

How do I stop myself before I start hurting more people in my life? I’m so tired of living with a mood disorder and this is just making my life so much worse

Vraylar stopped working?

I increased my vraylar (4.5 dose) 2 and a half months ago and everything had been great, no mood swings or really any depression, but now I’ve been in a depressive episode for the past week and a half. Does this mean my meds just aren’t working anymore? I’m meeting with my psychiatrist on Thursday so I have a good care plan but what am I even going to do now that yet another medication isn’t working for me? This is all just so frustrating

Meds Stopped Working

I have been in a depressive episode for a week and a half now and had two panic attacks. I have bipolar 2 and it just seems like my medications have stopped working altogether. How do I keep hope when this happens? I’m so frustrated and feeling suicidal during this time and I don’t want to check myself in anywhere. My family, friends, and boyfriend are all worried about me because of how much I’m crying and crashing out essentially. My meds were working for two and a half months and they decide to stop now? Like why? I just don’t understand it
