There were times I ask myself whats the point of life and knowing that she doesn't like me back the way I cared for her is what hurts me the most. I also have dreamt about my crush for days until my head hurts so much that I couldn't sleep.

I have moved on one month ago because you gotta think about the future. Are you really going to chase a girl that you will put your everything into and not get any of it back? or are you going to find yourself a wife to share the love. Back during those 2 years I have pushed everybody out of my life and have pushed out all the females that have also trying to enter my life because I was "loyal"
But how I moved on was to delete all my social medias, to prevent seeing her pictures and to allow new people especially other females to go into my life.
I currently have opened my mind to try new things and meet new people then to stay depressed on someone that will only make me feeling down.

Don't ever think about taking a life, because at the end its all gonna comeback to you!
I have not seen the benefits of my suffering, but I know I will someday and so will you ✌ 🤝

But you're going to be okay OP.
Just hang in there dude, it's going to play out good.
Eventually you will move on in life, just try everything you can to keep a clear mind and don't think about anything.
Travel somewhere, get a fulltime job, go tryhard at school - Idk, whatever you feel like doing, just do something.
Keep yourself busy.
Eventually you'll find another girl, and generally just more happiness.
Suicide will never be the answer dude, think about the consequences it will bring onto your family - if your mom got addicted to benzo's during her divorce, how do you think your suicide would affect her?
Keep going strong OP

No way in hell. This just contributes to the depression. I had it long before her rejection.

It did worsen it, though.

You mentioned you don't want to take medication because your mother got hooked on them and that they'll fuck you up. But you also said you intentionally have a high caffeine intake to prevent yourself from sleeping. That's super unhealthy and I promise you it is making your depression worse. Your fear of dreaming about her is bordering on obsession and that will make you have more dreams about her. Instead of focusing on her and worrying about her entering your thoughts, try to break that habit by replacing the thoughts.

When I kicked smoking a pack a day I had to do something or think something every time I wanted a smoke. You can apply both physical and mental exercises if you're obsessing over her. Think of something else or maybe do some pushups. Try to get out more too. I know that everyone says that but I've had depression my entire life and those times I fall into a bad place, it really does help to get out and get some air and exercise. The hardest part isn't the exercise, that actually comes really easily. The hardest part is getting yourself to do it.

It's always there, I can just distract my self for a few hours at a time.
