What the hell is wrong with you? You're complaining about how "terrible" you life is even though you can fix everything "wrong" about it.
1. Stop being so damn emotional. You hit a hard point in your life, so what? You need to buck up and start sorting things out instead of feeling so damn depressed about them.
2. Find a job you can enjoy. You stated that you loved your last job and the people you worked with every day yet you quit TWICE because you were so glum. Eliminate the feeling of sadness and any job you have will feel like your dream job.
3. If you can, get a job close to where you live. Not only will you not need to waste money on your car but you'll also have the reassurance that your right next to your comfy place.
4. Absolutely FORGET ABOUT YOUR FRIENDS. Although this may seem like a difficult thing to do, you're going to have to eventually. I'm not saying completely isolate yourself from them, but don't be so upset that you're not seeing them as much as you used to. Plan to get together with them once a month at your house or theirs. It's affordable and fun!
5. You're only 17, don't be too upset about your career yet. Find out what you REALLY want to do, if teaching seems to be your forte, forget about it for a while. Get your life sorted out and THEN go back to it. It's only another problem that's been stacked upon your other ones.
You need to sit yourself down, make a list of what you absolutely NEED to do right now and start with the things that are easy to do. Your life isn't as bad as you like to think it is. You're young, you've got a high-school degree, a capable body, and a full, wonderful life ahead of you.
One of my favorite sayings: "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade."
