I can't shake a constant feeling of depression. I have one friend who I used to be so close with. Three years ago she moved to Arizona, we talk usually once a week and have done so for those past three years. But now she's a completely different person. Then my other friend is a guy who is a very devout Christian and who I've had a crush on for quite a long time. My problem is that I'm not religious so I can't completely express my true feelings with him and the one person who I can express everything to lives 2,000 miles away and has completely changed. Our friendship is hanging by a string. Every time I try to make a new friend it fails. Every time I go to a family reunion or social event people basically tell my mother that I seem socially cold and distant. My friends know me as an outgoing and humorous person. However, every time I come home the feeling of such worthlessmess and wanting to be alone comes back. I feel crazy. I'm not completely sure If I'm sick or just stressed.

It sounds like you are going through a really tough time right now. It sounds like you need more closeness than your two friends are able to provide. It is very hard to maintain a friendship over such a long distance; your friend and you, yourself are bound to change.
Could you ask the male friend how relationships between girls and guys do work in his religious circle? Find out what he's feeling. you may find that you can be closer to him without breaking the rules he has set for himself.
You could also rely more on your family at this time, and ask for more support.
If you feel really down for an extended period of time, you need to see a doctor.

Cheer up. This is normal. When your close friends move away, get married, or just get involved with their own lives, and forget about out you - it kind of leaves you feeling lost. Just pick yourself up and work at making some new friends. Everything will work out.
