Hey there. I don't know anything about the medication I'm afraid, but I can relate to having my mental health issues interfere significantly with my education. And I felt significant fear and shame around not being able to continue my studies, and around people asking why I stopped.
If you think that suspensions are likely, why don't you try to get compassionate withdrawals again, so that it doesn't F up your GPA and your academic transcript. Maybe have some time off and give the medication a chance to see if it helps you out.
I needed to take some time off. Time out. Then, when I decided to return I started back part time for a year to get my confidence back after row after row of compassionate withdrawals. I suspect that your parents may well be more concerned about your health than your suspensions?? (I don't know of them at all).
I am thinking of you, and hoping you feel better soon.
