People don't leave for no reason. They may not have told you why, but that doesn't mean there wasn't a reason. I'm not saying that this is your fault because depression is outside of your control. Understand the monster, though.
When I was in my darkest, most of my friends walked out on me. It's hard to be around someone who's depressed because it's hard to understand how someone could be so down all the time. It's hard to love someone who can't even love themselves. The people who didn't leave were the people who wanted to exploit that. I've never had more guys interested in me than when I was depressed because they all wanted to protect me or save me or we could "save each other" (whatever the hell that meant). Obviously being depressed is hard on you, but its hard on the people around you as well. Not everyone is cut out to be that unwavering, supportive friend because it does get old. There's no way around that. It doesn't mean you don't deserve support, though. Understand that sometimes the help you need is more than your friends can give you. It takes professional help to start making headway when you're as depressed as you are.
I don't believe that in everything happening to you, there is nothing you can change. For starters, seeing a psychologist would help. That's something you can change.

I'm so sorry that you are feeing such awful feelings. Trust me, I've been there. Even though I've dealt with similar monsters, that doesn't mean that I can competely understand your situation. I'm not you, and neither is anybody else. So nobody knows exactly how you feel and nobody ever really can.
I do know how tempting suicide can sound, and I know I sound like a broken record, because EVERYBODY says this: but it really does get better. I used to think people were lying, and sometimes when the negativity seeps back into me, I still believe it doesn't. But then I realize that all that negativity is negativity...so of course it's lying. It really does get better.
I went through a year and a half of cognitive behavioral therapy, and I came out the other side SO much happier. Am I happy 24/7? Of course not. But who is? We're human beings and even those people who have that creepy smile on their face and seem to have absolutely no problems all the time cry and break down behind closed doors every now and again. The main thing is to recognize the sadness, but not to ruminate on it. Realize your feelings. Feed them for a very short period of time. Recognize them. Feel them. Be human. But then find some distractions, and reasons to love your life.
I really really do believe that counseling is a very good thing. Sometimes it's a hard thing to do, but it is 100% worth it in the end. I promise you. And even though I've been through depression and anxiety myself, I can say that I've had friends go through it too. And that was very hard for me. Not only is it hard to be around someone so negative constantly, but it is difficult to see someone you love so much go through so much pain. Really though, I'm sure they didn't leave you for good. It's probably the negativity talking.
It might be helpful to get out more often and do more things. While it might sound hard to do in the beginning, you will never regret doing it. Exercise is very helpful. It's also something you never regret doing. Get yourself on a good schedule. Your body likes schedules. Go to bed at the same time every night. Wake up at the same time every morning. If you need help sleeping, take a melatonin supplement. Try doing some progressive muscle relaxation. It helps relax the muscles in your body, it's similar to meditation. You could also try keeping a journal. Research has proven that to be a very helpful technique! Make a list of things in life that have made you happy and try to find a way to make those things happen again. Or make a list of things that would make you happy and do those things. Or simply make a list of things you like about yourself and your life.
I hope I helped at least a little. You are so important, so please don't do anything drastic. There are tons of people who love you, I promise. It's just hard to see it when you're s incredibly sad. If anything, you can always talk to me! Hope things get better for you soon!
