I told her that I pretty much have, if not all, the symptoms of depression but she told me that it's because I'm anxious and stressed from school, though I am currently only anxious and stressed from school because I'm afraid I won't get into my university programs because my marks are suffering from being depressed. I am also diagnosed with two anxiety disorders, so I do have anxiety in general.
I didn't do homework for three weeks because of lack of motivation and then I finally told someone and got myself help. I am slowly getting myself back to do homework, but some days, I can't. I try but can't.
To get myself to see another pdoc I would have to wait another 6 months, as the waitlists are long and there is a lack of services. By the time 6 months comes by I am moving away from home and am going to university (I really want to say hopefully, but trying to stay positive), so I would need to find someone new again. Also, I'm at that stage where I'm about to enter adult services because I'm turning 18 this year, so I would have to find a new pdoc anyways in 6 months.
Sorry there was also a rant kinda in here too.
Thank you for your response
