I would tell my 16 year old self to stop doubting everyone and open up, there are people out there who WILL care. Also, don’t let yourself sink further into depression, you can overcome it.
As for contemporary books, I can’t think of any at the top of my head but I would tell myself to continue reading Tuck Everlasting. :)

I would also recommend that that he read Paper Towns by John Green.

A YA contemporary I would recommend to my younger self would be The Start of Me and You by Emerly Lord :-)

I’d recommend The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
