For the first time in years I felt okay. I was on meds, I was going to therapy, and working a full time job. It was a little scary but I decided I was ready to go back to school. Now it feels like a huge mistake. The meds don't seem to be working anymore. I feel like I took a huge step back in therapy progress. I'm even back to seeing my therapist once a week. It's only week 2 of classes ... there are 16 in total. I wanted to not give up on my degree but that means a few more semesters (a year+). I am taking a class that I've previously failed 3 times. This is my last shot to take it or I'll have to take it somewhere else and explain to my parents that I failed the class 3 times or pay for it myself. I feel like I have to start over absolutely everything.

      Sending you love. Make an appointment with your psychiatrist to potentially readjust your meds. Possibly see your therapist twice a week until you get over the hump. Lean on your support system. Stressors will do this. You’re not alone.

      Are you able to see a doctor who can give you a note and get an incomplete in any of these classes, so they aren't failed?

        @Kbot They told me last semester (fall 2021) that I could take an incomplete on all my classes but it meant I couldn't take them again. They were not very helpful or understanding. I do however have some accomodations in place this semester that I'm hoping will help.
