Losing my own life as caring needs grow

As my partner becomes less physically able, blind and his mental capacity reduces, I find myself less able to fullfil my own needs mentally physically or emotionally. I am exhausted and very low in mood. I get help and support from the local services but feel at a loss as to how to maintain my own self.
