<p>I've been severely depressed for most of my high school years, amd am now a senior. My grades have been bad, but I am now recovering from depression and am on medication. I am trying my hardest to be the best student I can be this year. Is this something I should include in my applications for college or would this end up hurting my chances?</p>
<p>Tell them about your depression but also add how you fought against it. This will make a very good essay topic about how you overcame hardships.</p>
<p>I hadn’t even thought about that! Thanks so much! :)</p>
