Disability accommodations....

<p>What accommodations does the disability office in your college/university give to students with depression and anxiety? Which ones are you using or have used in the past?</p>

<p>Hmm, nobody want to confess lol</p>

<p>I would move this to the parent forum, they may know what their students have used</p>

<p>and the title is confusing,</p>

<p>what's confusing about the title. I think anxiety and depression are some sort of a psychological disability.</p>

<p>If the title is confusing then perhaps you need disability accommodations....</p>

<p>I feel like many people struggle admitting they have a psychological disability and therefore do not seek accommodations for fear of the stigma it might attach to their professors. While I have accommodations for my chronic illnesses that include extra time off from class due to frequent illness or exhaustion, I do not know if something similar would be offered for depression.</p>

<p>Schedule a proper meeting with the head of the Students Disabilities Offices of your University and ask about a thing or two. </p>

<p>Your parents might have to help you with regards to obtaining documentation and all of that good stuff. </p>

<p>Don't fret, truthseeker, it is not a big deal. Really. It isn't. You just go and do what you gotta do and then go from there, eh? Also, there is a L.D. and whatnot area of this site. So, maybe you can go over there and see what is happening?</p>

<p>Talk to someone right away. Do it. And let your parents know how you're feeling.</p>
