Yeah, dude, I'll pray. I hope everything turns out alright. Loneliness and depression are two big mountains to climb, but Christ can give us victory.

3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ, 4 just as He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love, 5 having predestined us to adoption as sons by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will, 6 to the praise of the glory of His grace, by which He made us accepted in the Beloved.
Ephesians 1:3-6

A lot of times this verse has helped me when I'm feeling lonely or rejected by people, because it's SO HUGE that God would even make us "accepted in the Beloved." So, even though you might feel lonely sometimes (or maybe even a lot of the times), you aren't alone. You are accepted by God in Christ Jesus.

Lifting you up, bro. And don't forget what the Bible says about, as a Christian, who you are in Christ! The passage Syreth pointed out (and the whole book of Ephesians) is a good placce to start.

Hey, I feel like sharing the same thing that I did in 2 other threads:

Well, this is a thing I have too, believe it or not, I never hung out with anyone in school before ( besides the 4 B-day parties I went to/hosted in my life ).

And it's interesting what the pastor said, G-d spoke through him last Sunday,
there's this verse in Genisis 2 that said:
" it is not good for man(kind) to be alone..."

did you know that people who have only acquaintances, buddies, but no actual friends are 15 times more likely to commit suicide, 5 times more likely to suffer emotional illnesses, and 3 times more likely to suffer EMOTIONAL BURNOUTS ( which is what you seem to be having, I had this too lately, and I'm glad SO that G-d answered my question!! ),
and also are more likely to die early in life.

The reason why it's so is because we were created to have fellowship, relationships, friends...for it is not good for us to be alone.'

This TOTALLY explained all my issues, I got a big fat revelation on this whole thing, almost ALL my issues were based on this.

OK, so enough there, if I'm not mistaken this could be your problem, correct me if I'm wrong.

Anyways, yeah, I'm praying...

Just very interesting, as you can see I was suffering from it without even really knowing it until I saw it's effects....

So yeah, I'm praying! Deffinitely...
