How to get my mom help for her depression
My mom has struggled with depression for years. She's told me she's been suicidal in the past. She's really a good woman, raised me right, and deserves to lead a happier life. Today I walked in on her crying really bad in her bedroom. I know she's feeling "that way" again. How can I help my mom get help for her own depression? I asked her before she wanted to go "see someone" but she told me no, and that the feeling would pass in awhile. I'm concerned.

I think you to sit her down and make her realize
that your concerned tell her that you'd like it if
she visited a doctor and she got help depression isn't something that passes in awhile like she said
it would tell her you hate seeing her this way & you
aren't going to watch as she continues to be depressed like nothing's happening it's hurting you it isn't something that goes away so easily maybe if you were somewhat harsh with your words it will make her realize that she really does need help and she can't continue to live the way she has been if you aren't able to convince her on your own then maybe you should try asking a family member to help it's worth a shot :)

Try and get your mother to go see a doctor. This is a medical problem. There are drugs that can make a major difference and counseling, along with drugs, is the most effective treatment.
She way need your help to make the appointment, actually making the phone and going with her to the appointment.
