The internship is for Aeromechanics.
FP Edit: Thank you all for your kind words. Send homemade engineering projects! And nudes.
It is an amazing opportunity. I will be sure to post about my adventure there.
Also, for those asking, it's at Mountain View, CA.
I am currently seeing a psychiatrist as well as taking antidepressants for two months, but it's been getting worse.

Things will get worse before they get better. But if they keep getting worse, and you don't feel like it's working, change what you can.

Don't stress that it's seemingly getting a lot of long term meds can take 6 weeks+ to start working and some can make you worse first.

Whenever I felt like that, people told me it would be good in the end, just get it together. So instead I say hang in there. You are awesome

I had a similar experience. It didn't help me personally and my depression got so much worse this school year. Get help if you need it.

Envious, I wish I could even do precalculus and here you are being a genius. I think I love you, congratulations
IDeserveTheWholeBagOfChips
sometimes you gotta try diff types of antidepressants to find the right one. from experience, i know it’s tough & shitty but it gets better.
GeneTheAwkward
If it's getting worse after 2 months though you should probably re-contact your therapist and check with em...

It can also take a while for the right one to kick in

LUCKY YOU! I'm a Canadian engineering student so NASA/SpaceX/Blue Origin is out of the question for me as it's considered defence :(

I always tell myself that life has ups and downs, just keep at it and things always turn around no matter how shitty they are now. Congrats!

Fvck yeah NASA! Depression is temporary, it comes and goes, don't fret over it, just you do you.
Bronzilla
Just work towards your goals. Depression is a symptom of not achieving whatever your goals are. It's your brain's/nature's way of telling...
Bronzilla
you to do whatever it is you think you're suppose to be doing.
Bronzilla
Counseling if for people who have had truly traumatic experiences. Otherwise it amounts to little more than life coaching.
GreetTheReaper
How do people manage to being in depression and, at the same time, make their dream come true...
GreyscaleArt
Friends, family, and small daily victories. Pursuing what is interesting. Knowing I want to change this world...
tibris
yeah, but think where you could have gone if your grades hadn't slipped... :)
GreyscaleArt
......... SpaceX?
tibris
maybe? who knows, the sky's the limit. wait, no, you are going to NASA, they go beyond the sky...
Diyamin
At least your degree will mean something! (sobs in corner using art degree paper as tissues...)
Surfette
another high school counselor fail.
TheSpeakerOfTheHouse
Your degree could be worth ten times more overseas in shitty places that don't know what they're doing.
C141Clay
But, but they're shitty places. He doesn't want to go live in a shitty place. And overseas? American shitty places are at least in the US.

Art makes the world a prettier place. :-)

Really depends.
CatOnTheRoof
There is a lot of shitty art as well... But I prefer to focus on the good stuff.
GreyscaleArt
I agree. I post my art on here on instagram.

Sorry to hear it's not working out yet, but keep it up. Perhaps the doc can recommend different types of therapy that might work for you.

I got mine under control with some cognitive therapy, but it never goes away completely.
