You need to join some activity at your local YWCA or something. I would also suggest that you speal to an adult that you trust about your feelings of depression.

While I was growing up, I had only 1 friend. I was so utterly shy that I did not make much friends at all. Luckily I grew out of that. It sounds like you are painfully lonely and want to branch out into a population of your own age. Since you are home schooled, you do not have the opportunity to do so. Can you parents sign you up with the YMCA or some after school or summer program where you can meet others your own age? Your parents have to realize that you are becoming a teenager. In years to come, you will realize that you need the social contact and stimulation from others you do not get at home.
Humans are social creatures. If we are denied that, we suppress our inner needs and become depress. Having a sense of belonging outside of your home environment will give you what you need.
Maybe you can talk your parents into signing u up with a public school this coming fall. Good luck!

Being homeschool is the biggest problem when it become to wanting to make friends but it is also great to be homeschooled. Get involved in your community, volunteer in some organizations. Not sure how old you are but there are some things you can do during the summer. You need to get out of the house for a while. You stay couped up in the house when your home schooled so take the summer to get out more.

Joining a club. Being unhappy all the time may push other kids away from you. Try to lifts your sprit, by thinking how special you are, and say that you are special. Don't think about bad things all the time try to think only about the good things. If you come across something bad, try to look at it from the good side of it. If your friends have friends try meeting them too.

IM me. I'm a girl, and I like friends. jerico_sucazi, and if I'm not on, email me. If you're talking about your town, I'd suggest getting out more. Go to parks or the mall or something. Sit next to someone sitting alone at the movies. (You know, a girl your own age! Not a grown man or woman! And don't LEAVE with them. Exchange phone numbers or something.) Overall, be more outgoing.

You age is a very hard age..I was very unhappy at 13 and 14. Pls. know it is not you...You may have depression and take some medicine.. but also nurture yourself.. join a gym, work out, take care of yourself. be kind to others...Kindness is so important these days.. If you are homeschooled you need to be out with others...Believe me I did not have many friends, now I have a lot, hon, just remember GOD LOVES you....GOd bless you. What do you like to do???

depression is not uncommon in young people today. however, i don't think that's your case. i think that you're just bored. being home schooled is difficult because you aren't exposed to many people your own age and it's hard to develop social skills with no one around. i would suggest taking dance lessons or joining a sports team. then you would have something in common with the people already. you just need to find where the people are.

Well you can have friends online and when ever you go out, try to meet new people and try to meet your friends friends and so on. Girls are difficult but not impossible to reach you know.
