I've had doctors tell me it's highly likely I have conditions ranging from OCD, ADHD, and bipolar 2, but when asked about it they won't follow through and keep throwing antidepressants that aren't working. So I was hoping to find a way to possibly look into those issues but since I'm younger than 16 my psychiatrist wont take my word directly. Is there any suggestions for how to direct my psychiatrist that way so as to find a possible reason for my depression

Maybe have your doctor write a note to your psychiatrist or ask for a new doctor or psychiatrist. Also ask for a referral for a neurodivergent test. It's a test that tells you if you have ADHD and other stuff. It might be different for you but it took me 3 months to get in, because they have to schedule so far out. But I'm 21 and I live in AZ so it's probably different for you.
