I feel your pain and I would be more than happy to help. Teenage years are rough and especially so if you feel like an outsider and have no support system. I had a really difficult time with friends and depression when I was your age. There were times when I felt so alone I wanted to scream, I had no idea what to do and the thought of no longer existing was oddly comforting. In my family, my siblings were very sick. I was not only the eldest but also the only healthy one, therefore, I spent most of my time alone and guilty, feeling like my feelings weren't as important or I didn't have the right to feel the way I did.
Here's what I've learned; popularity is overrated, seek friends who see the real you because even if you aren't sure who that is right now, those people will help you find her. Don't ever try to be someone you aren't just to fit in, it won't feel as good as you think.
You aren't crazy! Hormones are messing with your whole body right now, especially your brain! Don't be too hard on yourself and know that there really is a light at the end of the tunnel.
Your feelings really do matter, don't compare your pain to anyone elses. Just because someone else may trivialize what you're feeling doesn't mean that you feel it any less, they are your feelings and you are allowed to feel them!
Open your heart and let love in, I know it sounds cheesy, trust me though. Whether it's friendship or romantic, the fear of being hurt can be strong and may be justified but don't shut yourself off, you deserve to be happy just as much as anyone, believe that and happiness will find its way to you!

I am 16 too. I'm kinda in the same boat. And venting can help a lot. I don't really talk with my family either. (They have their problems) I've been like this for about 2 years. And I'm just waiting for the day that I can go to bed and actually look forward to the next day. If you want to talk to me, I can give you my email. Just ask through a private question or message. IDK exactly how this site works.

There is an organization called NAMI which stands for; National Alliance on Mental Illness. The have a 24 hour hotline, 1 (800) 950-NAMI (6264), you can call to speak with a volunteer who can help you find some one in your community who will help you.
If you are suffering from depression you are not alone. As some one old enough to be your grandfather I can tell you that what is bothering you is what parents of my generation called a phase. Today doctors know a lot more about this so called phase teenagers go through and are able to help them.
We know stress causes depression. We know teenagers today are under a lot more stress then teenagers of previous generations. The depression that most teenagers suffer from is mostly due to the body not secreting enough of one or two hormones that control moods. These hormones can be supplemented with a simple medication taken once a day. Therapy with a qualified therapist is also called for to find out what the stressor trigger(s) is or are and to help you deal with it/them.
On paper it looks simple. In reality it can be depending on you and and how well you work with the therapist. I know this for I am now in recovery from depression and this is how it works. The doctor and therapist can do only so much. The rest is up to you.
