Feeling lost, tired and alone - a lil rant

Hi everyone, this is my first post. Sorry if it may seem long and rambly.

I feel like there's not many people in my life I can reach out to in regards to my MH and that's why I'm here. For starters, I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety about 5 years ago. I am a WOC so I've grown up with cultural conflict, an addict father and alongside that, was brought up in a broken household that do not believe in mental illness. I've also been financially supporting my family since the age of 16 (am 25 now) which I know has largely contributed to me being the way I am.

Overall, the past 12 months of my life has been the worst and my depression has significantly intensified since COVID-19. Through those 12 months, people I considered my closest friends broke my trust; I went through an abortion that felt so isolating and on top of that, lost my job as a result of the combination of the two and the mental/physical effects I was feeling at the time. I feel like the people around me just treat my MH concerns as something I'll 'just get over' and with my mum that I live with...she just thinks it's BS altogether and that I have no reason to feel the way that I feel. I'm still in uni (2nd year out of 4.5) which I know full well has been impacted because of my depression and anxiety (been in uni total 6 years). I've been on/off medication and have seen various counsellors yet I feel like nothing has changed.

Another semester has passed and I know I will be failing yet again. I managed to secure a job this year but learning during this time in the world was definitely a struggle. Professors basically intensified the workload because they assume 'we have all this time' and I've been unable to reach any mental support at the uni due to the volume there. Usually, the library and the campus was my haven and the place where I could focus my energy on my education - I was making great strides before COVID too with Distinctions! Basically, I'm just tired of this failing pattern repeating, no matter how much I want to finish uni and I am worried how the school will perceive my enrolment next semester. I know this is my ticket out but I'm just lost as to what I can do and I'm scared to approach them. I just want to graduate and move on already!! I feel like I'm being left behind when I see those around me level up in life and I'm tired of family/friends asking 'when will you graduate?'

How do you cope with adversity? I feel like I am not as strong mentally as I was a few years ago. How do you move forward? I would like to know if you've dealt with mental struggles especially while in higher education.
