Why can't I shake this never-ending self pity, and loneliness?

My advice would be to give it a while. You're still young and later on it might not seem as big of a deal as it is right now. I had the same problem and eventually I gained some perspective and realized that things could be a lot worse. That's not to say this isn't a reason to be upset, just try not to let those feelings push you over the edge, so to speak.

Give what a while? I've had this bullshit self pity and loneliness my entire life. There's nothing that's happened in my life recently to provoke these feelings. As you get older, you know how to deal with problems better. There isn't a problem to deal with, so how the hell do you learn to deal with it?

I've had the same problem for my entire life as well and I still do, but to a lesser extent. Like I said, after a while, it might not seem like such a big deal to you. I didn't say those feelings would definitely go away. If you read the part where I explained that having perspective would help it not seem so bad, then taking that advice could help. Again, I'm not saying that's the end all solution to your problem, just that it helped me. When you're younger your problems tend to seem like they're a bigger deal than they actually are. I find it strange that there's apparently nothing that happened to provoke said feelings, but that's really none of my business.
