I have a 17 yo who has the same problem. Wanted to kill himself and eventually saw therapist and was scripted anti-depressants. He is also shy and has social anxiety.

He has found some relief in finally getting a job and making money. This has got him off the internet [which he was on during 95% of his waking hrs] His job also allowed him to make some new and different friends. He didn't like his private school "friends". He feels a lot better about himself now and is gaining confidence.

The key is to get out of your house and make an effort. Take some risks.

To risk nothing is to have nothing!
 
the couple of times i've sought psychological help from the medical community, i found it completely useless. i still maintain that the ultimate anti-depressant/euphoriac is discovering your self-worth. finding your own unique way to make this world a better place. beautifying it with art or music, helping someone learn something, cleaning up a mess.....your gift could be anything. finding that gift, and putting it to use, that's the first, hardest step in finding a meaning in this life. give yourself a chance to get there. and in the meantime, know that there is a prayer, a wish, a hope, a bit of creative energy, sent into the universe.on your behalf. for peace. for understanding. for discovering. be well, young friend.
 
Sounds like to me you should go to a doctors and ask for some strong antidepressants such as MAOI inhibitors because you sound very depressed... maybe you should go out and enjoy yourself more instead of sitting around moping about how you want to die.... (sitting in a room thinking i want to die is not a very good way to make yourself feel better).
