I have been in your shoes and it is no fun.  I attempted suicide at 14, thankfully I failed.  I really thought that it was my only way out.  I was the fat girl, the one everyone picked on day after day, the boys wanted nothing to do with me, and all I ever wanted was to fit in.  It does get better.   Kids are mean, period.  There is no other way to say it.  I have moved on since graduation, have a husband, kids, a home, and a wonderful support system now.  You need that too.  You need to find someone to talk to that you trust, a teacher, a nurse, your doctor, you need to let someone know how you are feeling before it is too late.  Depression can be the end of you, or admitting to it can be the beginning of something wonderful.  Don't let this be the end.  There is someone out there to listen to and understand you, more adults than you can imagine have gone through what you are right now.  Don't let this depression win, you are better than it, and don't you forget it.
