While you are at home, find things to do that will get you OUT of that house. Take your music and work on it at a bookstore or the library or sitting under a shady tree in a park. You have a choice to stay cooped up at home all day which will feed your depression, or you can decide to get out of the house a few hours a day just for some you time and peace which will help you by putting your well-being on the important list so to speak. You DO have options to help you get through this time a little easier, but YOU are going to have to make that happen for yourself.
Woops, must have combined the interests line and the occupation line. Still reminded me of my trumpet teacher anyway!

The problem is that I can't drive and there is nothing within walking distance of my house There is no public transportation and my friends live on the other side of the country (my parents do not live anywhere near Boston if you're looking at my location and are confused).

Which is exactly why I can't do that to her. She's been nothing but good to me and doesn't deserve to go through that at my hands.
