Congrats for realizing that something is wrong . . . most people struggle with that. One of the best things that you can do is figure out when you feel more depressed and what may have triggered that. What do you enjoy doing?? Do you like running, walking, playing Basketball? Do you write in a journal the things that bother you throughout the day. All these things can help when you are feeling down. I do think that you should try talking to a guidance counselor at school or having your grandmother join you and your mom for a sit down. Mom's reaction might be more out of her fear rather than her misbelief that its a problem. Good luck!

if you dont feel comfortable talking to your mom directly about this, you should tell someone that you're close to and have them tell your mom in a way that she will understand. if you are truly depressed and you need help, do this soon... i dont want anything bad to happen.
hope i helped = ]]]

Hi
You can't let how your mother may react stop you from getting the help that you need. It sounds like you have an ali with your grandma. Have a talk with your grandma, and then the both of you could approach your mother.
You are also old enough to go to the doctor alone and ask for help. It would be nice if you had your mothers support. Maybe she just doesn't understand depression, and needs to research it a bit to understand what you're going through.
First and foremost though, you need to think about yourself and get help.
Good for you for realizing that you can't do it alone. Good luck. Take care.

I'd have your grandmother talk to your mom for you. Better yet have her help YOU tell her. Maybe she could be there to answer any questions your mom may have about it. :)
