Any experience? Relationships and mental health

How does one navigate that?
The MH is bad enough it effects their daily life, they have depression, some phobias and panic attacks.

Don’t know how to be supportive enough.
i don’t understand the illness.
Feel like I am missing out on things although they never stop me from doing what I want.
In our late 40s/early 50s.
Together for a while, they have also been like this and knew when we were first introduced.

Thanks.

How long have you been together? Do you live together? Do you have kids / mortgage together? How long after you got together did the MH issue present itself? All important info. If married for 25 years and this is an episode triggered by perimenopause/ a bereavement / high stress then that’s very different from dating a while. I can’t hear any love in your OP and that makes a difference too.

5 years.together.
I do love them, but I think deep down I want someone normal, unless some good advice is given to me.

Fair. You're not a nurse.

Have they sought ongoing medical help? Are they tweaking that help with medical support?

If no then run as nothing will ever change.
If yes then run as nothing will ever change.

Five years is enough time.

It sounds like you have had enough and are ready to move on. Forgive yourself for that. How much disruption to both of your financial and emotional lives will this cause? Managing that well (if v intertwined) is hard. Do you have kids you have co-parented? Is there anyone else to consider / protect?
