Thanks for everything, guys. Things have just got a whole lot worse though. I told my mom about my depression and she said it was just one of those things. My mom was absolutely fine a few days ago, before I told her about me. Now she's crying every day and has been talking to her mom and everyone. They're all going to rally around her. Nobody really cares about me. "You'll get over it" is what people say to me. My mom though, no, they're talking about getting help, getting her on medication because her life is oh so terrible. All I can do is sit in my room, door closed, headphones on, hoping that my depression will lift and I'll be okay soon. I only have myself, no one else seems to care.
Perhaps your mom is upset and stuff because she is worried about what you told her? I think that maybe if she's been talking to a lot of people, especially her mom, then maybe she's trying to get advice from other people. Or maybe she's crying because she thinks that it's her fault you feel so terrible like she's not doing something right... not that I know anything about parenting but I know how my mom thinks that because I act like I do shes done something wrong even though theres nothing wrong with m and Im fine.
Oh and about music. Some of you guys mentioned loud music. You listen to it a lot? I know lots of people discourage me from doing this so Im not sure if encouraging you to do it is the right thing or the wrong thing, or if it wont matter at all. But I like to plug my headphones into my stereo and just BLAST the music so incredibly loud (that some would consider it harmful to my ears) and just dance and dance around my room (long cord) until Im so burnt out I can't move. It just likes knocks everything out of my head.
