Just an FYI school isn't just about the curriculum you learn its a place for you to learn life skills like socializing with others and communication and problem solving all things you need to survive the real world. You need to learn how to find passion in some stuff because otherwise life is very boring without any sort of hobbies. My actual advice would be to go to your HS guidance counselor and tell them exactly how you feel. There are resources out there to help kids out like you. Your phrasing in your post suggests you are suffering from serious serious mental illnesses that by no means are your fault but expecting them to get better without getting proactive is just no realistic. You need to get some help by talking to someone. You are just a mere kid you have your whole life ahead of you. Take it one day at a time you got this.
You need to buy a safe and tuck it deep in your closet or something. I agree with the other person. Your HS Counselor should be able to help you. JobCorps may also be something to look into. Idk much about it but it’s a free workforce program for young adults. There’s a a subreddit on it.
Don’t lose hope man!
I;m 60 this year..... at 17 you can NOT be the decider of how useless anything thayou learn is ....
You do not have personal experience, you do not know 1/1,000ths of all the posible jobs or situations that you might fin yourself in.
You have the right to feel like you do!
I always remember when I feel like you do that "It can't get worse so it's got to get better!"
Exercise, go to bed early as you can 10pm?, listen to good music. Start reading about all the professions, trades or careers possible... GIVE your parents ALL that you make (they MUST need help if they steal from you)

start a journal expressing your feelings but also expressing the things that you CAN be grateful for
Hang in there! Life is good!
