Xperia Z shows that its charging but it won't charge.

I've been using my xperia z for almost 2 years. I dont usually let the battery drain to 0 but I did two times in a row for the last two days. Now my phone won't charge.
Like, if i connect it to the wall charger it will only charge until 58% even though the led light is on and i see the little lightning bolt which symbolizes that it charges. However,  after 58% even if i let my phone plugged all night, it won't charge until 100.
Then i unplug it then turn on the airplane mode, and it charges until about 70%. Then it stops again so I unplug my phone again, and connect it to my powerbank, which is also a sony product, then it charges about 90%. 

Anyone has an idea why this happens or how to stop it?

Could be that by depleting your battery you may have damaged it and as such it would need to be replaced
