Hey! I'm pretty much in the same situation as you!. 2 years ago, i became really depressed due to problems at home!. I tried to take my own life it got so bad!. I used to stay in bed all day and my grades also went down!. I used to self-harm!.!.!.!.i did again lately!. My dad has a really violent temper!.!.!.he has hit me before too and he treats my mom like crap and i hate him for that!. We havent spoken in a week as we had a massive argument!.
I told my mom a year ago about everything and she freaked out-i think it just shocked her!. It has taken me a year to go see a professional because of that!. I thought i was getting better but sometimes things just kept getting worse instead!.
My parents don't know i'm getting help!. I'm getting it from a counsellor in college and i went on my own!. Do you go to college!? There should be a counsellor or some health professional working there and they will help you, believe me!.
At first, it can be hard!.!.!.!.i know i was nearly sick with nerves the first day i went but its been all worth it!. Its their job to see how they can help you!.
You probably should inform your mom!.!.!.!.what i did was i wrote everything down in a letter and gave it to her and tried to talk about it to her afterwards!. She will be shocked at first but that will be all!.!.!.!.!.she wont be ashamed of you!.!.!.!.shes your mom!. It may take her a while to get around it but it will be ok!.
Now even though it didnt work for me, i'm still getting the help i need and it really does work!.
I hope thats of some help to you and if you need any more advice or even just a chat, email me at gerh1912@yahoo!.co!.uk

Talk to a school counsellor, explain that you don't want to upset your mom!. Maybe you can see someone through school, I did when I was in highschool!. Or talk to your doctor in private!.
