Extenuating circumstances

I am an American student doing an extenuating circumstance for a study abroad course in the UK. I have already taken this course and I am doing an reassessment. I was reading how technical or financial issues are not consider an extenuating circumstance. My issue was a mental and financial issue and finding evidence for the mental issue is tough. Is there any way I can show proof?

A doctors note could be suitable evidence.

Doctors note? Report from a tutor or teacher? Can I ask what the issue were in brief? That might answer the question.

I also had extenuating circumstances I had to declare. When you apply through UCAS, those who write your references are usually the ones to include bits about your extenuating circumstances.
