I know this didn't have bad intentions lovely, but statements like that aren't always helpful for either person.

Hello all! It's been a really long time since I've posted in here but things are getting bad again so I thought I'd ask for some advice. I've got a lot to ask so any responses are much appreciated 
Basically my anxiety is getting bad again. It started about two years ago, and I had a few CBT sessions. My counsellor suggested that I may have depression in addition to my anxiety problems, which I agreed with as I was in a really bad place. I told my mum about it and she went into complete denial, and took me out of CBT. I didn't want to do it but I wasn't brave enough to stand up for myself. (I was 16 at the time so she had the authority really)
Fast forward two years and I'm feeling like I'm drowning again. Something needs to be done. So, few questions:
1) if I go back to the doctor and get referred to some kind of service, will there be correspondence via post? It's easier if my family don't know about this for the time being, and if I have suspicious post I'm going to get awkward questions.
2) I'm also applying to uni this year. Would a diagnosis of anything be beneficial/recommended? I'm not sure what support, if any, I could get. Obviously I might not get a diagnosis, but I think it's worth finding out.
Thanks for reading the essay

1) Nope, not necessarily at all. You might not even have correspondence but if you do, you can ask for it to be emailed to you.
2) I would say that it might be recommended, but not necessary at all. Others on here might disagree and say that 'they can prepare for you and put things in place' but really nothing happens until you actually get there, in my experience. Certainly at my uni, anyway, regardless of whether you have a diagnosis or not, you go through the same process in order to get proper support as everyone else.
feel like **** right now

Sorry to hear you're feeling unwell again
I'm pretty sure you could ask your GP surgery not to mail anything to your home. You can ask them about it at reception or by phoning up, I'd have thought 
As for uni stuff, it does vary from uni to uni but it's good to get hold of a DSA form early, as the application approval and then assessment and then assessment approving can take a little bit of time and the longer you delay applying, the longer it may take for you to get help. There are lots of ways in which your uni could try and help you, depending on what your diagnosis ends up being and what assistance you might feel you may need
