Should I go to my commencement?

I just received an invitation to the commencement at my school to receive my M.A. this December. I’m tending toward not attending for a number of reasons:

-I’ll be alone among my cohort/department, because I completed my M.A. a semester later.
-My department treats the M.A. as just another box to check on the way to the Ph.D.
-I won’t have anyone to attend as a guest, and I’d feel embarrassed asking my advisor to attend. I already lean on him far too much.

I think attending my commencement would just make me feel depressed, in a month where I am highly likely to be depressed already (nowhere to go during Christmas, trying not to think about that right now).

Can I still officially receive my M.A. without attending this ceremony? Do you think I will regret this years down the road? I really don’t think I will, but I would appreciate some other perspectives.
