Congrats on doing so well in school despite the setbacks (failed test, missing projects) that your depression likely helped bring about. The fact that you are doing alright academically despite them, and that you work hard in other areas of your life, is very encouraging. Don't give up on college!
I'm a freshman (for another week, haha) in college majoring in psychology and philosophy. I am also a pre-medical student, and I intend to become a psychiatrist. I do not intend on allowing my bipolar II disorder to limit me; likewise, you should not give your depression and difficult life circumstances any decision-making power! You can do it; you'll be an excellent psychologist with a very inspirational life story some day. : )
