still depressed
i cant stop feeling depressed. I'm not sure if i actually have depression or not but i always feel like i have no reason to live. all my friends ditched me this year,even my best friend of 6 years. i have absolutely no friends. i haven't hung out with anyone in months and i used to have tons of friends. my grades have started to drop because I'm just too depressed to really care about anything the teacher has to say. i feel happy when i am wit my cousins, but they live really far away and i dont see the often enough. i havent talked to my parents about it really because im too embarrassed and they might think im dramatic. also they are really stressed out and i dont want to add to that. evryone tells me just to be happy and make friends, but its not that easy. this situation has no silver lining. what should i do?

I don't think you are being dramatic. I would hope your parents wouldn't think that either. When one is depressed anything in life seems difficult, so you are right it's not that easy to pull your self up by the boot straps and "Be Happy" or "Make new friends". There is always a new day, but it sounds as if you don't look forward to anything right now. Seeing your physician has to be my first advice as there could be something physical that is making you feel this way.
Even if it takes effort on your part it may be worth it to join a club or volunteer somewhere. It's often the easiest way to make new friends.
Do you have pets? Pets can also give us something to look foreward to and be there for us when we are feeling blue.

You have to talk to your parents. Tell them what your old friends did to you, and tell them every little detail. Tell themwhy your teachers bore you and tell them evrtything that is wrong woth your current school so maybe they will send you to another one instead.
Just don't do anything dramatic that could end up hurting you or other people in the end (and you know what I'm talking about) because in the end it will all work out, maybe just not right now.
