I have the same problems as you do. I study a lot (like all day long)...but my grades doesn't reflect that in the least bit.
The root of the problem is that you are depressed, you focus on how much you do not like doing homework/your classes, the fact that you can't go out like your friends or whatever. But have you ever thought of what you enjoy while you do your homework? The things that you enjoy about the subject while you study? That definitely helped me out a lot in my Summer class. I was able to do very well on the final because I had a positive mindset. Before that, I dreaded doing homework because they were so hard and it took me a day to do them. But then later I found out that negative attitude will just make things worse, so I just decided to calm down and be "happy" or "content", and the studying went by like a breeze, I was able to focus better, and when the test came, I wasn't panicking at all...it felt extremely easy for me.
You should have a positive mindset when reading/studying, because if you hate it and is always thinking about your "friends"....then you won't get anything done while studying.
