My bf struggles with bipolar and I’m feeling very overwhelmed

Hi I was recommended this group and I was hoping for some advice or insight
I’ve been with my bf for a year now
He struggles with taking meds and doing self care. But recently after new meds adjustment he’s been full on ignoring me when I ask if she’s eaten or gotten up
He sleeps 16+ hours daily
And won’t do anything unless I ask him to do something repeatedly
He also isn’t going to therapy he was in one on one therapy and would tell me he just sits there in silence
And constantly says he wants to stay in inpatient when I voice in worried or burnt out
He will also send me self harm photos after arguments
And I just want to know what I can do help him and get to a healthy place
I’m willing to answer questions the best way
I can I know his medications I just feel like everyday I keep repeating the same expectations and it gets ignored or dismissed

AIO about having to keep reminding my partner to communicate

Today I snapped at my bf because lately I’ve had to keep reminding him to do things like wake up eat take meds etc the most frustrating part was when I told him to please just tell me he did what I asked or reminded him to do so I didn’t have to sit around and wonder and he would just sit there silently
Last night he promised he wouldn’t ignore me and communicate and today it happened again when I told him to get up and wash his face to wake up and he just sat there silently for an hour while I was meal prepping
It makes me feel like a babysitter or a mother
Am I overreacting ?
Some context idk if this is will help he’s o n new bipolar meds it’s been about a week since the new meds but he still communicated with me until recently
