Hello,
For fighting mental illness and alcohol abuse, you need to get back to counselling sessions, connect with family and your doctor regularly and to ask for help whenever you feel distressed. Engaging in some activity like sports, some hobby, exercising will definitely help.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
