All these problems sound like a visit to your school's disabled student services could be helpful. They teach study skills and may be able to test to see what your best learning style is.
With ADA, these services are required to be available to students with diagnosed disorders including ADHD, depression and anxiety. The accomodations can be as simple as allowing more time for tests to one on one tutoring. Why not see what help they can offer before giving school up completely? Even if you found the perfect med combo tomorrow your grades could have tanked before they kicked in. Better study habits might take a bit of pressure off- God knows I wish these services had been available when I was in school.
Don't try to be the Dr. tommorrow. Help the man do his job by telling him ALL your symptoms and let him decide what to treat first and how. Your posts here are articulate and should help you make a list of what is bothering you so you don't forget anything. Good luck tomorrow.
