You are not alone. These are hard AND depressing times. Have you shared your feelings with a doctor you trust? Have you been in touch with a suicide hotline? Maybe talking it out with someone who understands and is not judgmental would help.

Friend, don't give up on yourself or the rest of the world. Sunnier days are ahead, we just all have to hang in there.
