I'm new...

I'm 24 and I've suffered from Depression and Anxiety as long as I can remember. I've attempted suicide twice in the past for different reasons, and although I'm past that, I still don't feel anywhere near being recovered. I have a very negative outlook on life and feel like nothing is worth the frustration and anger I feel on a daily basis. I often feel like I have no one and although I know logically that God is there for me, I don't feel it emotionally. I often have issues with my family, I literally don't have friends, and my boyfriend and I have been fighting a lot lately. I've tried medications and therapy and nothing seems to make any difference for me. I also feel like I'm going insane which is a very uncomfortable and scary feeling. The worst part is, I understand that I don't have anything to be depressed about which tells me that it's completely chemical. I'm ready to get some real help, but I don't know where to turn. I want to enjoy life and be a fun person to be around, as well as someone who doesn't worry incessantly about every single issue that comes up. I hope I can get there.
