Leaving uni for a year

I’m supposed to be going into my second year of uni but due to severe anxiety and depression I have been thinking about taking a year off to work on my mental health and get better. My mother hates me for doing this but i honestly don’t know what else to do. This past school year I have been doing really bad due to lack of focus and interest, basically I was too fucking sad to do anything. Anyone here have had a similar situation or some advice about this situation?
