Depression is manifested both physically and emotionally. The classic physical signs of depression are headaches, fatigue, digestive problems, hyperactivity, sleeping disorders, loss of concentration, and distorted eating patterns.

You are going through a tough time to say the least. Yeah you are young, but you are still hurting no matter what the age.
Losing a loved one is never easy and then a rejection can blow you away.
I say "be good to yourself". Time will heal losing the loved one and that takes patience on your part. Get enough sleep and eat balanced. Getting sick isn't going to make anything better.
The guy thing...well, you are worth more than just one person's opinion. Don't let just 1 guy (or anyone) determine your worth. You are a good student, you smile alot so you must be very personable. Why let this guy ruin who and what you are? A terrific person!!!
I also suggest watching some funny movies or reading something humorous. Let's get back to the real you, cause you are worth it.
Take care sweetie. You will be OK.

Try to put your life into perspective young one. Your very young, if this guy can't see that your beautiful and full of potential then he doesn't deserve you. As for your family members death...loss of life is inevitable and it can be very hard to deal with. The best thing to do is to not dwell in the past and think of how your life will be affected by the loss, instead think of how your life was affected by having that person in your life in the first place. You'll see that you were probably fortunate to have them in the first place instead of not at all. Remember, your 16 years old, you've got a lot ahead of you and its only going to get tougher in the next few years but that means the rewards are going to be even more fulfilling in your life.
Your going to be just fine. Keep your head up.

You need to go see your family doctor (tell your parents) and get some help. You can get some medication to help you thru this, but DO GET HELP please...
It's really important not to go thru this on your own...
