How did I end up like this? Lying down in bed and thinking about all the possible ways to die. I guess I’m just too lonely. I literally have no one to talk to. I used to have two really close friends, but then the other one stopped high school and the other one got a boyfriend. Now there’s no one beside me. My family doesn’t really care since I’m eighteen now. I just want this pressure in my head to be away. I want to sleep, but my mind is too busy with all of this darkness and sadness. I’m sad, I admit it, but I don’t know if I have anything to be sad about. I feel like I’m just counting the days to go, until I finally do something about this pathetic life of mine.

You have family and your basic needs are being met. All you need to do is just make some new friends. The key is to never act desperate, that scares people away. Have a good sense of humor, be friendly but aloof.
Don’t invite people out to activities like watching movies too soon. Grab some fast food with them and slowly let the relationship build. Some people are pretty laid-back and they’ll be happy to hang out, others are more cautious.
Also never discuss your true feelings until you’ve known them for at least a few months, that can also be a turn-off. The good thing is that you’re young so you still have time. In fact the best relationships I’ve made were in university because you’re with like-minded people.
It’d help to read books on psychology and social interaction. This makes it easier to understand people, pick up on social cues and to communicate more effectively.
