I have been in uni since 2019

I did foundation year in 2019 and the reason why I left university was because I was being bullied by people that were older than me when I was 18 and during the pandemic, I was stalked, I didn't tell the university because I didn't know what to do because I was scared that he would hurt me and I was terrified because he stalked me from my house. Then I will change universities then studied your first year was brutal but second year was even worse because I was being bullied so badly that I failed every single module and I was on antidepressants and I was having manic episodes and I didn't have any support with my disability therefore I failed and nobody believed me that I was being bullied, and everybody turned the blind eye despite I did not have anybody, therefore, I took a year out and now I end up studying in February 2025 because I need to get a diploma I have no intentions of getting a degree and I know a lot of people would be like getting a degree, it's way better than diploma.

I had mental health issues and disabilities and one of the disabilities got better and now I'm no longer disabled, but I'm so sick and tired of university, my intentions is to get a diploma because I'm exhausted of education... I don't want to do

I'm sorry that you experienced this - you've been really strong to overcome this and still be at university. People have different paths in life and what matters if that you keep going. If you are determined and this is what you want, grit through it, look past the past and do the best you can. Have a solid date in your calendar as to when you finish, it'll motivate you. A diploma will give you lots of opportunities still.

Just have a quick look through the student room; so many people have gone through similar situations of dropping out, sometimes because of external causes outside of their control as you unfortunately experienced and sometimes because they simply cannot handle the academic pressure. And many times people come back to uni after and that's inspiring tbh.
