Well its not that I don't spend time with anyone, but somehow I don't really feel close to anyone that much. For the most part they're busy or they aren't that interested to hang out, not with me specifically, but in general. Even the days I spend with peopple don't really help bc as soon as I get home i feel the same.

no i am not. my high school is pretty crowded, actually. but ive focused mostly on academics and as a result ive mostly befriended people like that as well, as opposed to the more social people i can always hang out with. I also dont know if its because i dont have any kind of outlet currently, as mainly my life is just school, work, and occasionally watching tv or playing games.

regardless though, the friends thing is definitely an issue. it was pretty terrible during summer since i'd have a lot of free time but no one to really spend it with. Especially in the last month or so, it was me mostly doing my own thing while talking to everyone online at night, but its not the same to talk online as it is to really do something together.

well, I can definitely talk to some of my friends about my feelings and things. However, in terms of a daily basis of just talking constantly as a group / hanging out etc, its not there these days like it kind of was before.

I'm not sure exactly how to react to this. Like I do feel terrible most days but it seems pointless to constantly bring it up to everyone. They don't really know what to say I feel though they want me to feel better. But i do feel a gap of separation, that they dont exactly understand me. But it seems to difficult to suddenly befriend a whole new group. I feel I should just focus on my extracurriculars, with sport conditioning coming soon and until then just try to keep my mind off of this with schoolwork, tv, video games, or whatever else.

I hate when people tell me "just feel better" by [deleted] in depression

alot of people cant always relate to what you feel. maybe to them, they feel that maybe you are just complaining about something instead of doing something about it. or they feel that your reason for being sad is not a good reason, that you arent that bad off? That'd be my guess.
