For your sleep, if you really refuse to go see someone, I would recommend trying taking melatonin supplements, which is a chemical your body makes on its own--its natural sleep aid--and forms no sort of dependency or anything. Honestly though, I would highly recommend seeing someone if things are getting as bad as you're saying. Even if it's just a counselor at school, they can help you a lot more than anyone else can, even than anyone here can. If it's getting to the point where you can't eat and where your mind is getting in as bad a state as it seems it is, then you need to go see someone. I would definitely encourage you to talk to a counselor about it all, so that they can help you through this. I know it's a hard thing to do, but they really can help. We're always here to help and support you regardless though, and I hope that things begin to get better for you!
