Before you do anything, first stop feeling sorry for yourself. Its only when you do this, you can think about what to do next. Go get yourself the first job you can get, try the local departmental store or the mcdonalds, janitor at a school whatever. This is only temporary so what you do doesn't really matter because what you need is some $ in your pocket. Its even better if you can work 2 jobs a day. This will keep your time occupied and earn you more.
Like the person above mentioned, move in with your family if that can be done. Otherwise move into a dormitory like YMCA or other such cheap boarding rooms for students. If possible try a cheap motel.
Start Saving! You must realize that this is the time where you can't indulge in any pleasures whatsoever. Walk to work, take the train or the bus. Save money on commutation to work, save money on room rent and save money on meals. Save everywhere you can.
Start looking for a good job As you are working in these small temporary jobs, keep looking for what you want to do for a living. Try to land a good job and then you can quit these other smalltime jobs.
Be Patient! When you're starting over new, its going to be awhile before you can be peaceful again. Be patient with yourself, with your emotions, your needs, your daily chores, your job, your home..everything! It might take a full year before you can start seeing some changes, but hey what's a year's worth of hard work compared to a lifetime of comfort?
Have a Higher Vision Keep visualizing what you want to be. Never stop seeing yourself in a higher place, as a happier person and living the life that you want. Visualize whenever you get a chance, while on the bus or when you're eating lunch. Have a dream! and make it come true one weekly wage at a time.
Socialize! As you mentioned that you don't have any friends, you should start making some right away! Befriend a co-worker, a neighbour or a local grocery guy anyone! Make sure you speak to someone atleast for 10 minutes a day. Be cheerful always! It attracts people to you and makes you look more approachable. Smile even in your darkest times and you will see that you have a light to guide you on ahead.
To sum it all up, just trust in yourself and in the universe. Don't think negative things, keep smiling even when things are looking dim, have a vision, work hard and be patient! It's easier said than done, but if you really want to do something with your life, then I suggest you best get going right NOW!
Wishing you all the very best!
