If the depression keeps up, go see your university health clinic and talk to a doctor. Good luck.
Two things I learned in college:
  • you don't always get to keep your old friends because interests eventually change
  • your circle of friends may get smaller, and it's okay if that happens
Now, as I'm heading into my thirties, I realized that I don't need a huge pack of "friends". I'm blessed with a few select individuals I can count on, and I'm grateful for that.

A true friend supports the decisions you make in your life. They don't put you down. Get to know your sisters better. Start up conversations with classmates. Don't let these girls be your be-all, end-all of your collegiate experience.
