If you cannot talk to your parents you should try talking to another adult. I know it's summer now so you might not be in school but, you can talk to your teachers or clergy members. If you want you can chat with me. I lost my 3 year old niece when I was 14 years old and I blamed myself. Although it didn't make much since to but, when we are feeling down it's hard to make since of things. What helped me get through it is I got a journal and I wrote in it everyday faithfully. If events happened in my life good or bad that day I would write in it several times that day. Putting my thoughts and feelings down on paper help me get through a lot of things. I hit a very low spot not to long ago and I tried this again. I also had a friend to talk to I hope these suggetions help you. Please do not cut yourself or do anything to harm yourself. I know you probably heard this a million times but, it will get better.
