They actually showed up at your door to do an assessment? Thats heavy... if you are seriously alcoholic you need to go to rehab. Why the hell do they think you are a terrorist?? Maybe it would be better for you to take some time off and suspend your studies for a bit and then go back when you sort yourself out, before you end up failing another year

Mental health is more important than your education. Get that sorted out first.

I'm guessing they didn't section you then? Who triggered this assessment? Are you already receiving help from some sort of mental health services? I would guess that if you aren't that the team who assessed you will have followed up some sort of follow up care from crisis team etc.

You can't study or effectively get through your degree in the state you are in. Take some time out, get better, then return if that is what you want. Why do they think you might be a terrorist? If you have no support currently then get in touch with your GP urgently; also contact student support at uni to discuss your options and possible support from them.

I'm sorry you're having a very hard time. Listen if you're depressed being there please please stop and leave. If you're depressed bc you're not enjoying your course or feel like you're stuck at dead end path way please stop. I was in your situation my mental health deteriorated so low I had no one to go to. My parents pressured me to do a course and I was being suffocated wth high expectations when I just did not see any future. I stopped and left the course before I did worse to myself. I can say I am at a better place and even though I have loans I feel better about my future. I'm doing a course I really want to next year and I wish I had stopped and left uni before repeating first year all the way through. So look if you're not feeling okay. Put yourself first. Your mental health comes first. You are your priority.
