This is a typical feeling I think around graduation time. I went through a horrible depression after I graduated college. I moved to a new town and had no friends except for my co-workers, who generally aren't really friends. I was engaged at the time, which helped make it a bit bearable, but he was 2.5 hours away so I was alone all week.
I was building on the depression then, but since I was alone it wasn't a big deal. Then we got married a year later after he graduated. The depression got worse and it effected our marriage. He forced me into counseling and it was the best thing I've ever done. I took Celexa for a year and went to therapy once or twice a week. I had many issues that stemmed from situations in my past and I also was feeling lonely because I had no friends but my husband.
I made an effort to make at least one friend and make a point to hang out with her at least once a week. This consisted of hanging out at her place, going to bars, going shopping, etc.
Then we moved again and found ourselves alone again. It takes awhile to make friends and you can't force it. You find them in the most strange ways.
Like others said you can join a club. I find that a stock answer, just like therapy is, but those are all we can say since we can't hang out with you. So, think positive thoughts and learn that you can't force things. The sooner you learn this the easier life will be.
Keep your chin up. Life only sucks as much as you think it does. A situation can be heaven or hell depending on your outlook.
