My mental health is trash, partially due to still being an intern despite graduating. I need to go to my psychiatrist to adjust my meds, but I am also stressed about leaving work and not getting hired

Have you started applying to other gigs? Making that appointment with your psychiatrist might help you feel less stressed. And I also suggest starting to apply if not already. It can take time and be really stressful but you will find someone to hire you for a non intern role :)

When did you graduate, and how long have you been in your current role?

100%. Don’t stress without understanding what your options are first!
