Depression and being gay

At the start of September I attempted to take my own life, I ended up in hospital and I'm not proud or happy about it. I've come a long way since then and I guess now my main problem is the loneliness and the crushing effects depression has on that. I'm finally starting to rediscover myself after being lost in a 4 year relationship where I wasn't allowed to be myself and be happy which is good but I still need people to talk to and have common interests and subjects to talk about.
