Re: my downward spiral
I'm still in college, and I never had anyone close die yet, but perhaps volunteering could help?
It might get you out of your slump and you can get to meet people/gain experience.
Back in Freshman/Sophomore year in high school, I volunteered making a website for a non-profit just because it was a graduation requirement. Senior year, they decided to sell their old car for $2,000, eBay had the same cars in worse conditions for $3K+ (Acura Integra, '91, 40k miles). They sold it to me for $1,200.
I also find it strange that your parents lied to you about your uncle's condition. Again, not qualified to give an opinion, but I think that may have worsened the blow.
