At this pony, I just feel like I’m a failure & I’m hopeless. I’m doing horrible in school, I can’t get a job after applying to about 25 places. I’m tired of asking my dad for money. I feel so pathetic. I’m angry all the time, sad, bitter, and resentful. I the smile and happiness I put on for people was true. My heart aches from past pain that I still try to get over.

"I’m angry all the time, sad, bitter, and resentful."
Yeah, .. I sensed that. And that could be the very reason you are unhappy ... Hmmmmm?
Soooo, get yourself to a doctor and find out if there is a medical reason for that state of mind. There COULD be .... and if so, it needs to be treated. Otherwise, you live your entire life with it ... a life much like what you describe in your post..
Get busy fixing things. Take each one of my suggestions to heart, ... especially the medical item.
It's been a process and it's not easy, but I'm already starting to feel better.
