My deepest sympathies about your Mom. I won't say "I'm sorry" because I didn't cause it, and I hate it when people apologize for things they didn't cause, don't you?
Anyway. You are in a tough situation. Does your school have any sort of a guidance counselor, or a psychologist/social worker that you might be willing to talk to? I personally think you need someone to talk to about all this stuff that's going on. It's really difficult to keep tough stuff inside, even stuff so "typical" as the whole "the girl I like doesn't like me" thing. You've gotta have someone to talk to, and someone who will treat you like a person, not as a child.
BUT, try to avoid depression meds...half the ones out there nowadays make teens suicidal. I had a friend who got a little depressed, and her parents didn't know what to do, so they sent her to a psychologist, who said "Depression meds!" and got a prescription from a psychiatrist, and she was suicidal. Like, seriously. She hadn't been before. But anyway...
Never lose hope. There is ALWAYS something you can do for yourself, for other people...when you've hit rock bottom (and it sounds like you feel as though you have) the only thing to do is bounce back up. If you want to vent to me, you can IM me (SirenCytherea). I'm on nearly every night. I really hope this helps on some level.
