Did you try contacting Nintendo about it (that is probably a stupid question on my part). Just realize that it is only a gaming device and should not be your source of joy in the world. Those friends you have will still be your friends. Your loved ones are still your loved ones. Your pet is still your pet (if you have one). I personally have struggled with gaming addiction in the past and have gone through points of depression when I lose the thing I'm addicted to. For example, I used to be ADDICTED to world of warcraft (back when the game was actually good with Burning Crusade) but my mother forced me to stop playing once she found out I was buying monthly time cards for it (I was in 8th-9th grade at the time) and I had to go a long time without it. I was so frustrated by it and bitter and depressed that I ended up quitting video games altogether for a while (that ended when my mother told me she didn't mean to make me quit games altogether). The next issue I had was when my account was hacked. I ended up getting the account back, but then it was hacked a 2nd time shortly after and I just decided that maybe this was my wake up call to get off that drug so I never even attempted to retrieve my account after it got hacked the 2nd time. It's better to not be attached to games or gaming devices to the point that it makes you want to rage on everything or get depressed. It is WAY easier said than done (as I pointed out is true for myself in my past). Sorry for the long anecdote.
