well, the best way is just to be precise and to the point. when she's not busy, just go up to her and say, "Mom, i have something i need to tell you. it is very important." and that will catch her attention. then go ahead and tell her you are feeling depressed. "I have been feeling very sad lately." and add whatever else you need to. after all, our momma's love us, they'll always be there for us! but only if they know the problems that we have. so the faster you tell her, the better :) good luck! don't feel sad. you are loved <3



Hey so I don't know how old you are but I am guessing you are a teenager as I am. I've been in the same boat before it's not easy telling a parent about what is going on but if you have a good relationship it's worth it.

It's important how you tell her make sure you two are alone, based how she reactions to things you need to decide on what you should say. Don't bring it up abruptly mom's care and want to help but when they find out their child is going through immense pain they have a right to react in all kinds of way because it causes them pain. So be gentle in how you bring it up. It could help having what you want to say to her written out before hand. Tip if she has something to say let her say it listen be prepared to hear non sense for her not to understand because she might not.



Well I could fill ur head with some bs but I'm not gonna if ur too scared don't ry to hide ur emotions and complain about things ( not in the bitchy way tho. In the I'm upset way) when she asks if your depressed just say some **** like yea probably or idk but I'm sad all the time. I kno this isn't the best way to deal with it but honestly are you really gonna listen if I told you what you should do instead of what's easy and works most of the time. If not then ur gonna have to tell her before you try to kill urself or someone



I know what you mean some times we all get a little depressed but I'm sure if you tell your mom and you two have a good relationship she will understand, she was a kid once like us, well unless Ur not a kid I don't know lol, just sit down with her and ask her if she ever feels depressed and tell her how you feel



Just say mom what is depressed mean? Then when she says the answer say I think I'm depressed



I didn't tell mine until she nagged me more than usual, then it sort of just burst out.
