I'm an international student currently taking A levels.
I have also been diagnosed with depression (most likely ADHD and ASD alongside it) that has gotten quite severe, and is significantly impacting my grades. I used to be able to handle it and achieve A*AA9999877 at GCSEs, but now am barely achieving BCC in Biology, Chemistry and Maths respectively. Due to the depression I have also had to drop Physics and probably the EPQ soon. I am currently unable to obtain a doctors note and inform my school due to my family.
I have no access to medication, and am being threatened with being taken out of school and or sent to my home country (not the country I am at currently) where taking A levels will almost be impossible if I keep pursuing this matter publically (ie. school, asking for medication). Worst case scenario I get pulled out of school to be sent to a psychiatric ward. To be clear, I am not in an abusive household, just one oblivious and ignorant of mental health. I have siblings that rely on my parent, and would like to keep this out of legal issues.
The backup plan I am using right now is to go for something less competitive, probably Biomed, and leave my country ASAP to get independent and go for graduate medicine. (Probably in the UK) Problem is Graduate medicine is significantly more competitive from what I have read. I also don't have a clear understanding of visas, student loans because I can't turn to anyone irl without exposing everything else.
I've done some thinking and the plan that I have written out above is probably my safest option, however I am extremely worried about post-grad. I've read so many accounts that people who went into biomed because of a missed offer at undergrad med do not end up in the field. I understand I am thinking very far ahead but for my sanity and to latch onto some kind of hope to keep me going and hopefully improve my current grades I really need reassurance.

Hello!
I’m really sorry about your current situation, you’re clearly in a tough spot. Your doing pretty well grade wise considering your mental health struggles (BBC are still decent grades after all).
I won’t be super helpful on the student visa front, but here’s the official government website for it in case you haven’t already seen it: https://www.gov.uk/student-visa
Also some other sites:
https://study-uk.britishcouncil.org/moving-uk/student-visas
https://www.gov.uk/browse/visas-immigration/student-visas
Also, if you’re struggling within school with exams and homework requirements, it would be good to request for provisions (extra time, rest breaks, etc.) if they offer them (unless they need the doctors note for that as well.
Sorry I can’t be more helpful, but hopefully other people more equipped than me will be able to help.
Best of luck <3

I turn 18 next year in the latter half of August (a month-ish before most uni courses start) I can't do anything or seek help without parental consent until I turn 18. A gap year isn't in the question at all and this is the only way.
Is there any other way?
