I think you are better of with 'no friends' than the WRONG friends. Slowly they are chipping away at your self-worth and guiding you into depression. You don't need that! Don't underestimate the peace and enjoyment of being alone sometimes. Find a hobby. Chat online (I don't mean to money-grubbing scammers though), go for walks, get a pet.
Gradually you will make new friends. You don't need a heap of friends. You only need a couple of really good friends that love you for you, and value your friendship.
Ditch the toxic friends. Only Toxic people would make you feel like a punching bag.
