Do not resort to alcohol or drugs, it is a temporary fix, but does nothing to help for the long run.
If you want to overcome this just think of the positives, and know that you can only change the future. Whenever you feel depressed, realise that it should be in the past, not in the present.
Keep us updated on how you do, and keep your head up.

hey Dragon,
I'm sorry to hear you're having a hard time, and glad to hear you're feeling a little better.
You might be clinically depressed, but then then again, during adolescence your hormones go wild, as if they overdosing on steroids. Massive mood swings and extreme depression and crying is not abnormal, neither is the feeling that you're not smart or good enough. It's not true, it's just how you perceive yourself. I never held such thoughts, but only because I was a total "space cadet" and didn't possess the mental capacity. That you do, indicates that you're probably a lot smarter than you give yourself credit for.
Your exGF didn't break up with you for someone "better." She probably just developed different interests, and more likely the reason she doesn't want to continue talking to you is because it would cause problems between her and her current BF.
As far as your parents telling you they have more problems with you than your siblings? Gee, mine too! Only EVERYONE tells me that I almost drove my mom to a nervous breakdown and right into a mental institution. And unlike my younger siblings, I never even got in any trouble with the law! I was actually just severely ADD and never got diagnosed until I was about 16. Once I did find out though, I was able to learn "coping mechanisms" which enable me to function fairly well.
Most likely, you're just going through "teen angst", but if you feel you may be depressed, you might want to consider seeing a doctor for a diagnosis and exploring the potential options.
I wish you all the best!

I feel the same way lots of the days. I've lost lots of friends, I've never had a GF (I'm in 10th grade), I'm doing okay in school, not good like I used to and I am just hating life.
I too just sometimes want to die, but another part of me doesn't.

Alright a word of advice,
Your parents will help you no matter what happens. If they didn't then they would kick you out, or not buy you food or not buy you clothing if they still do. Your parents are basically what make you live without them you wouldn't be where you are now.
For this happy problem, if your parents can afford it, why don't you try moving to a different city or state/province (depending where you live). I've had the same problem before when a girl just says one thing and I was shocked because we had a good conversation and one day she said "fudge off". Now we talk a little bit, but anyways maybe move city's would help, start a new life, maybe see a specialist ? That's what there here for.
If you need anymore advice just P.M me
