If you don't have enough hull integrity, your seabase will crush on it's own(like a seamoth at it's max depth). To fix this you need to make reinforcements or bulkheads, whichever one is easier for you. A bonus to the bulkhead is that it prevents damage as well as containing floods, but it requires fragments to make.

Basically just add reinforcements. To get the lithium you can go to the Sunbeam landing island- there's a ton of it on and around the island. If you end up going there you might as well harvest the surface basalt outcrops for diamonds, too. Just bring a knife so you can kill the Cave Crawlers- they will easily kill you if you don't take care of them
