Second, my depression is taking me away from focusing on school, and I am normally an A student, but this semester, I am a C student. I also think I just failed a test this morning, so I am headed toward F student. I am a senior in college, and I don't want to give up. Third, I am very upset and asked a friend to go to lunch, and got rejected. My friend is sitting at home on the computer for three more hours, and I always help the person. When I need help, nobody wants to help me. I guess I will just sit alone like usual.

Do not give up. You have made it this far. Do find help---you are doing so much, school, work, trying to maintain very high standards. It is often the case the person we ask to lunch/whatever who turns us down has no idea how important that small positive contact can be at times---or how much it hurts, and it hurts even more to think they don't know. If your school has counseling try that---and if you have an academic adviser talk to that person, you may need to slow down a bit, or just have a place to go and talk. We are here for you. You have done well and you will do well. Did something specific happen to trigger this depression?
