Hello! I am sorry that you feel alone.  I've been there before, not a god feeling.  Have you tried contacting your local JDRF chapter? I know they have support groups. There are plenty of Diabetic Online Communities, TuDiabetes.com, Diabetestalkfest.com, Dlife.com, they all of groups for diabetic's to enter act with each other.  TuDiabetes.com has a group within the community dedicated to teenagers. If you need anything or need anyone to talk to let me know, you don't have to be alone.

Take a look at Ginger Viera's site for diabetic teens and also Tudiabetes. There are also a lot of great  blogs out there, some by teens. Diabetes Daily site has a chat room as do many others. You could see about a local chapter or support group--many hospitals have them, as well. May I ask your age?
