Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
These are all symptoms of depression. Depression symptoms include feeling low all the time, loss of interest in the previous pleasurable activity, feeling lonely, low in energy, hopeless, helpless, worthless feeling and sometimes even suicidal ideas. Few of them or all can be present at a time.
Bipolar illness has both high and low phase and you are having a low phase at present.
Consult your psychiatrist and get treated before the symptoms worsen. You might need a higher dose or a different mood stabilizer.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
