> I already volunteer. I mentor a nine-year-old boy who lives at a treatment facility for kids with severe emotional and behavioral problems. He and I both take Celexa right now :). And I'm on a committee at the same facility. And I'm a part-time nanny for a two- and a four-year-old, in addition to my normal 40 hour a week desk job. And I sit for other kids too. Plus class too nights a week...jeez, am I just TOO busy? Is that part of my problem? Probably...
And you are going to school on top of all that? No wonder. I wouldn't give up on school just yet. I found that depression disproportionately hurt my ability to do heavy memorization so, as you feel better, you may find it gets easier. It's also something that takes practice. If you haven't taken this kind of class for awhile it's normal to be rusty. Finally, I remember that my school always recommended allowing more time for the math and science classes. Given all the other things you are doing I suspect you are having trouble finding the time to drill as much as you should. Don't assume that just because you are having trouble with this stuff right now that you always will. Good luck.
