I confess that I just can't cope anymore.
Whatever it is, you can. Stay strong. The test every human being goes through is being knocked down by life and feeling like you have no will to go on, yet getting up and going on anyway. Bad times pass. And with each bad period you overcome, you'll become a stronger human for it.
The other day I was thinking about how I often had suicidal thoughts in high school and realized how insanely happy I am that I never went through with them. In the years since then I've had plenty of ups and downs, but I've experienced so much more of life and am eternally grateful for every second of my existence. Even the really crap parts.
Don't give up hope. As much as it may seem like it's not the case, things do get better. But you have to be willing to let them happen and work towards making them happen. Stay strong.
There's a lot more awesome opportunities out there as an adult (or generally, when you're past school), than who gets to be homecoming royalty or who's your prom date.
