Hey there Rebecca =)
I have similar problems. After going on leave for a year I realize how truly far apart form the rest of my "class" I was. I guess in actuality I realized it sooner, but I had more time to think while I was on leave. I DID have two closer friends in the first year of school, but I realize now that I wasn't sharing MYSELF with them, and we also have grown apart in the past 3 years.
Its hard to find someone to get close to, it's hard to find someone with the same likes and dislikes. And at least for me when I try to go looking for friends everyone already "has that friend" or is "best friends" with someone and it's hard to actually make friends because of that.
I too would not come to graduation except my parents would be upset if I didn't and they're spending THOUSANDS of dollars to send me to school.
It might require us making a leap - I know I don't reach out, I'm not always an "active friend" and the more depressed I feel the worse it gets.
I also think that for you getting through school will help you a lot. I think your school you are out of place but you can CHOOSE where you're going next and therefore you are more likely to find people more like you
dunno if this helped
erm... sending hugs?
