Trig Three monthes in and feels like I can't take much more

I'm 15 and male. I jumped off my balcony onto my trampoline and hit my knee into my chin blacked out for a couple of seconds. Thought it was nothing continued training (I'm a very serious cross country and track runner). Now here I am my headaches still last most the day. I need medication just to sleep and at this point am really depressed. I'm incredibly out of shape in comparison to what I was three monthes ago my heart rate used to be 44 in the morning and is now about 91. I haven't hung out with my friends in several weeks and am about a month behind in schoolwork and tests. It's really hard to watch my straight A's become C's. If I was able to run none of this would matter. My dog died two days ago and I'm visiting my uncle on his deathbed next weekend. Some of my friends have been supportive but most of them think it's funny or that I'm milking my concussion to get out of doing work. They think concussions only last a week or 2 and that they aren't serious. They make fun of me because of how stupidly I got my injury and because of that I made up a slightly different story for my parents and Doctor. I got so depressed the other day that I did some self harm, nothing serious but still stupid. I think I did it for attention but it happened. I'm not really suicidal but I've thought about it. I know it would be stupid and wouldn't solve my problems. Maybe some of my friends got to me or maybe I was sick of being cooped up, but for New Year's Eve I got really drunk at a party. I've never been drunk and I did some really stupid stuff and said a lot of things I regret. I starting crying at the party which is really embarresing. One of my friends drove me home and she's been helping me a lot the past few days she wants to get my a councilor. I'm not sure how the drinking will affect me long term but my head definately Feels worse.
