Even then, while there's nothing wrong with small gestures to try to brighten someone's day, you need to work to focus on the small group of friends that truly matter and being there for them. If you don't have close friends that have a true give-take relationship, then it's time to either start standing up for yourself and stating what you want, or it's time to find friends elsewhere if that makes sense.
Anyways, sorry things are so rough for you right now. I hope they will get better, and I do hope you take this as a chance to take care of yourself too.
