How can I recover from social anxiety and depression before I go back to school

I have depression and anxiety which has caused me to be taken if roll at 6th form since I missed too many days. I have a year out of school now, and I don't know how I can get rid of my social anxiety and depression before I go back. Being at home is so isolating and boring, I have no friends in and out of school anymore. So I don't know how I will be able to gain any confidence and make friends I'm just so awkward I get embarrassed of myself because I don't know how to start a conversation and not being exposed to social situations makes it worse because I'm staying in my comfort zone, this is the reason why I'm depressed because of my socializing issues. I just want to do something as well as psychotherapy where I can gain confidence and improve my personality
