I recently realized that half of my support network isn't going to work. My support network is 2 people. So I also realized that I need to grow this network. But I'm not sure how. I'd like to ask some of my friends who also deal with depression, but I'm a senior and I'll be leaving soon. So I also kind of feel like maybe I should wait and grow my support network when I'm settled at college.What should I do?

Growing your support network is a great idea. In actual fact by writing that post you've already started!! So starting now and expanding when your settled at college could work well for you. Any person who can provide healthy, positive support can be a valuable addition to your network. Your support people can also be online like here for example rather than face to face. All the best with college.
