How to get over this weird sickness thing I have?

I've not had the best upbringing in life and about 5 ish years ago I realised that coming up to holidays or celebrations such as My birthday, Christmas, Mothers day and the end of June/July time, I get sick. sometimes its a few days during or prior the event sometimes it'll last for weeks. Sometimes it would be like i've come down with a bad case of the flu and sleep for 12+ hours a day and other times it'll be that plus a deep depressive episode. (I am depressed but I have some meds for that now).
My issue is, I recently (10 months ago) got into a new relationship and it is my birthday soon. My boyfriend isn't aware of this weird sickness thing that happens so I was wondering if anyone had advice on how i could help at least maybe ease these symptoms so I could maybe enjoy my birthday since he seems really excited to celebrate it. Do I need to talk to my doctor to get new meds or is it just a case of trying to not even think about my birthday or even keep track of time till it passes?
