I am 15years old in august
and
im depressed because wen my mum was younger she was abused and over the last few years she has been in hospital with depression and i just remember everything and theres too much to really explain but that should help. x

Just come out with it. It'll be okay once you've told them. Don't get others to do it for you.
Along the lines of this is good:

"Mum"
"Yes?"
"When i spoke to Dr. Markus, He said that my problem wasn't flu, it was stress, and possibly depression. He wants to refer me to a counsellor to get it sorted as soon as possible, but he wanted mne to tell me parents first"


And go from there.
Hope this helps. I had the same problem when i was younger sweetie, it'll get better.
