Depression will make me fail my Alevels

I live in complete denial, just trying to escape this reality. My brother is at uni and barely talks to me. My mum is literally insane, giving me these weird herbs to "remove parasites" from me and doesn't work, sits on instagram all day. My mum and dad are devorced so I rarely see him. Due to past trauma, my social anxiety is really bad, so I don't really socialise at school. I spend all day gaming, watching films and listening to music to drown out that horrible silence that consumes me. At this rate I will fail all my A levels, they are only 2 months away now. Rant over

2 months is enough. You can turn things around if you start studying now. I've just started revising for summer exams, and I'm in university.
