Yep, I was in your shoes at your age. I had depression but I didn't know it. I know it's hard, but you have to get over it and find someone else. There will be other people you will like, but they will be hard to find, so don't give up.
Crying will actually help you, but don't get stuck in an infinite loop of crying. Crying releases stress, and when you feel better, pick yourself up and find another girl. It takes a real man with confidence to cry in public. Give yourself time to get over her. Try to do things you like. If you like heavy metal music, listen to that.
Not all meds will work for all people, and you might have to try 4 or 5 before you get the right meds. Depression is not your fault, it's a chemical imbalance. You can't cause it, and you can't think it away. You can't think positive to get rid of high blood pressure or cancer either, you need medical treatment. So go to the therapist, stick with it, and give each drug 4-6 weeks before deciding if it works or not. Yes, it takes that long for best effectiveness.
The first break ups are the hardest, but it gets a little easier. So do not despair. You have talents the world needs. But it is your job to find and share them.
