I've missed two months back to college can I still go?

Due to anxiety, depression, and home life I've missed the first two to three months of my second year at college, I'm wanting to go back but don't know if I can, and don't know if I'll be able to catch up, does anyone have any advise?

Do you have medical clearance?
Did you start your second year?
Have you told the college whats happening at all?
Have you been doing any work whilst at home?
How did you perform in the first year?

If they let you back then yes you could catch up eventually, but depends which courses plus how smart and how hard you are prepared to work.
Thats up to you to assess your learning ability.
The alternative is to seek to return in 2021.
The college will take any medical note from your GP and your communication with them during your absence as influential.
