Hi:
Do you have a 'counsellor' in the college where you're attending? Or, a psycho.-therapist to consult? Most of mental illnesses NEED a medication to get well, ... at least one med. at a time.Recalling your previous post regarding your experience on 'Effexor,' I believe that you need other class of anti-depressant, ... but to be frank and honest I have NO idea which form of A.D. would fit you at this moment when you're going through depressive spells, ... 'crying' and 'not happy' in general, even though your bf seems a caring individual towards your mental illness.
In my suggestion, ... first you need a 'good' anti-depressant which help you feeling-well before planning any 'tedious' and 'hard-work,' because all of those tasks give you quite a 'stress,' ... in other word, exacerbation the 'depression.'
In my suggestion, ... if you have a 'good' counselor in your college, talk to him/her about your current situation. In my knowledge, there are some 'accommodation' for those who have mental illnesses.
