How can I feel better about everything?

Question

I feel like crap. No it's not about that I think I am ugly, or that  I think I am an idiot, or some boy doesn't think I'm pretty. Not at all.
This year, my close friends basically ditched me, because I was focusing on studies. Now I feel like I have no one to talk to. I have my family and we are close, but it's not the same. I feel like I cannot trust anyone with how I feel, because I'm afraid that I'm going to be ditched again. It also did not help that one of my close friends and I dated, and he broke up with me and refused to be friends with me, and so now I have to see him everywhere (work included).
What can I do to cheer myself up and move on?
P.S. It's not like religion doesn't help, but it's more of an emotional  than spiritual thing.

Take control of your life.  Change your day-to-day behaviors.  Examine your values and choose a new way of being.  Reject societies messages that cause you to feel oppressed.  Give in to your passion.  Blow off your responsibilities.  Stand up for what's right.  Question authority.  Reject conventionality.  Explore the world.  Challenge everyone who asserts to know.  Fight back.  Push your way to the front of the line.  Dye your hair a funny color.  Talk to strangers.  Eat unusual foods.  Masturbate a little.  Stay up all night and sleep all day.  Steer clear of mean and untrustworthy people.  Reconnect with someone you've always liked, but lost touch with.  Read inspirational literature.  Don't listent to music.  Dance!  

We have a way of limiting ourselves.  Painting ourselves into a corner.  Break out of your box and you will feel liberated.

Just go out and make new friends. You have to trust people. Yes, you may get hurt again, but that's life. If you only doing something just thinking about what may happen, and how it could turn out bad, you're not going to have very much fun. You need to stop worrying and just have a blast with life. That's what I do anyway. Also, be more optimistic. Assume everything will go your way, and base your life off that. If it doesn't then have an optimistic view on what you can do to be better off. I don't think I've ever been depressed in my life, because I know it will all work out, and I have a blast doing it.

I have been in this perdicament before. If you believe in a religion, continue to pray, have faith that it is going to work out for you. Smile for the thinks that you have and everything that is going on for you right now. You said you are studying, that is one of the best things that you can do for yourself. If your friends ditched you, they were not real friends and you are about to move on to something so much better. For now, find comfort in that there is light at the end of the tunnel and it is going to be so much better than anything else you had going on before.
