Dear Halliebeth,
I hurt for you, I can identify with what you're feeling..to me, the thing that pops out in what you've expressed is you not understanding your emotions, also severing ties with people and ot not getting along with people. The journaling is a great idea, and do try to understand your emotions. i do the same thing with planning, before you think the planning won't go through tell someone about your plan that holds you accountable. Also try, a little at at time, to spend less and less time in your room and perhaps with new friends, join depression bipolar support alliance it's dbsaroch.org thats our local site then click on national site for a meeting near you. I care about you, please write back and tell me how you are feeling.
