You need do nothing, because everything takes time.
Time, by the way, is not the great healer everyone says it is....all time does, is pass. It puts 'space' between you and the event.
There is no guarantee that you will ever completely get over this, although I do trust that the pain will numb, and you can mourn constructively, because of course, this is exactly what you are doing.
And (although this is not implied criticism) I do feel your parents are being a little hard or unfair on you in insisting that you do not confide in anyone around you, especially as they themselves don't know how to react to this....
One possible avenue is for you to get back in touch with your doctor, and speak to him about bereavement counselling, or giving you details of a body/association/group that deals with miscarriage.
As you are 18, and technically an adult, you can insist he keep this totally confidential. In actual fact, I'm sure by Law, he is obliged to....
But I do agree you need to speak to someone sympathetic and understanding...someone who knows 'where you are coming from', because trying to cope with this on your own, at your young age, must be a nightmare.
Try to keep well and to look after yourself.
your body has had a shock, so it too, needs time to heal.
