Hi.
I am having some issues, and falling behind in uni work due to anxiety and depression. I have spoken to my tutor who basically advised me to go to the doctors and get a doctors note for an extension (or in the worse case a deferral).
I went to the doctors and my doctor agreed to give me one, along with a recommendation for some anti-depression pills and a double appointment in two weeks time.
HOWEVER.
I dont know how long the doctors note is actually for and if I can use it for an extension on my dissertation (let alone a deferral)
and also, everyone I know who got a doctors note got one right away, whereas my doctor agreed to write me one but said I'd have to pick it up in a few days...
I'm really worried about this because everyone I've spoken to said that they got there's right away. What if the doctor changes her mind? :/
