Need advice
I am close to being diagnosed with clinical depression, but not yet final as another appointment needs to be done. Now I can't decide if I should continue with my school or drop for the meantime (dropping is pretty normal in our univ and it's easy to return). I am confused and unsure, I think it's a misdiagnosis? Or maybe I'm just in denial. Either way I can't make this decision. I'm between wanting to just suck it up and finish school, or take a break to get better first (which ngl might make me more obsessive with my condition, especially if I'm not busy with things anymore.
TIA

As I'm new here, I get the feeling we aren't supposed to give advise. However, I understand the decision to be made and why. It is hard to make any decision when you are dealing with depression.
You know yourself better than anyone and I don't think a diagnosis should make the decision for you. Have you asked this question of the person providing the diagnosis? What happens if you decide to stay in school and then drop out if you find that it is too much? Is that an option? How do you feel about it right this minute? You don't know how you will feel tomorrow. Just my thoughts to maybe help you not feel like it is so black-and-white.... Best of luck to you.
Thank you, this helps, especially the part that the diagnosis should not make the decision for me
