I was in that situation when I first went to college in 2005. I ended up having to drop out because I couldn't get it together even with treatment. I decided not to go back the following semester because the college itself was the wrong college for me. I didn't go back to school until 2007. But the point is I did go back, and I finished with a bachelor's in English and secondary education.

If you choose to stay, is there any way you can talk to your professors? Maybe explain to them that you've been ill (no need for specifics unless you feel comfortable) and maybe ask for extended time on some homework or something like that. What really helped me in college was writing everything down that I had to do in a weekly planner and then planning out what I had to do each day. Breaking it down into smaller segments helped keep some of my anxiety down.

If you do decide to drop out, can you maybe get a part time job or a volunteer job that can keep you out of the house? I had a similar situation. My home was not a good place for me to be for extended periods of time. I was able to hold a part time job even when my symptoms were raging out of control. That kept me busy for awhile.

It will take awhile to find the right meds so unfortunately even with a pdoc which is a step in the right direction you won't be feeling better right away.

Just know that school is always there. Even if now is not the right time for you, you can go back, whether it's next semester or next year or even later than that. You need to take care of yourself first.
