I second the other poster's concerns about you seeking therapy. Remember that your mental health won't really improve unless you are personally invested in your improvement. It's a process, and a slow one at that, with many ups and downs.
It's perfectly normal to feel overwhelmed. Most people do. Some leftists say this is by design - that capitalism tires us out to prevent out-of-market social bonds from forming. I don't particularly agree with this perspective (it sounds too NWO conspiracy theory to me) but regardless it is a consequence of the skyrocketing disaggregation of social bonds that comes with rampant neoliberal technology. The late Zygmunt Bauman wrote some wonderful books about this "liquid modernity", as he called it, which can help you make sense of this whole thing:

Liquid Love (can't find an easy-access pdf)

I think that reading about these processes may make them intelligible to you, and help you process your worries in a healthy way. This is something you can do without forcing yourself to interact with people.

...but yeah, eventually you should try to make bonds. Community, solidarity and love are praxis. Probably the most important praxis of all, in my opinion. There's something radical about love, that capitalism can't take away for you and commodify. Though it tries, of course, and will keep on trying, but there's no trading away social bonds. So really, the worst thing you can do is dwell on that isolation. Reach out. There are more people who will relate to your feelings than you think.

Also, and this is a minor point I guess, but you're 17 and hormones are all over the place. It's perfectly normal and part of your development to feel lost. Read books, talk to your therapist, make friends, and you'll be fine.
