I find the best way to get through depression and loneliness is to read, but that's for me, when I read, I imagine the character is me, and then I can be in this unreal realm full of surprises and a good ending.
Also, I agree with the hobby's that Corrie suggested. I myself play touch football, basketball, softball, T-Ball, soccer etc etc. I also write my own books.
The friends I obtained through bullying and rumours, I acheived by showing that those jerks didn't know what they were talking about. Show people you're an awesome person, show a fun side people never knew. Everybody loves the class clown, but know where to stop. Use your strengths for your benefit 
I'm glad you reached out here,
Jay.

Hi Jay,
Thanks for the reply.
You've been very welcoming towards me since I joined the site, and I really appreciate it.
I think the last part about overcoming bullying/rumours is so true. When I was bullied in the past, it was quite often based on untrue perceptions of what kind of a person I was, and the bullies persisted because they knew it bothered me, that I cared about what people thought of me, whether the rumours were true or not.
Thanks again for helping me out.
Gareth
