Im visually impaird/legally blind also, but I go to a school that has an abundance of visually impaired and blind students, Western Michigan University, and the Michigan Commission for the Blind is also within the same city, and trains grad students going into blind studies out of our university. Idk why your school is not that good with their disabilities office, but maye you can help them and give them advice on how to better suit the needs of yourself and students like yourself. That would be my best advice to give you on that subject, and don't forget there are outside resources that can help you also.

My issue in school isn't so much my vision, by this point Im so used to that I know how to accomedate my needs. My issue is my mental health state, andit's effects

Take care
