And continually screwing up with school due to stress triggering symptoms and not being able to handle it mentally. But I’m hoping starting to volunteer helps me ease into things and maybe once I’ve done that for a few months I’ll be able to handle school. My psychiatrist doesn’t think I should be in school right now due to how unwell I ended up several times in the past while in it, she doesn’t want me to mess up my progress and I agree with her but I think I will be ready by the spring semester.

Just a thought Blue_Bird, but maybe school will be somewhere where you can meet some new friends! I remember when I was in college (less so now that I'm doing a master's and only working on a thesis), I would try to talk to people some. It's definitely nerve-wracking to try to talk to people at college, but I'd say it's worth it. Maybe you could make a few friends there if you do decide to go.
