Hey Lea,
Sounds like you are going through a lot right now. I just wanted to let you know, it will get better. Anxiety and depression go hand in hand so it sounds like that may be what you are struggling with right now. I know exactly what you are going through. I myself have extreme anxiety which has caused my depression and a hell of a lot more. But, you WILL get through this and so will I. I just started CBT and it's a HUGE help. It's hard to get the hang of at first because you have to think about your thoughts and change them. The more you do it though, the easier it will be, and the better you'll feel. Don't give up. You have your whole life ahead of you.

See the whole point in CBT is fixing these thoughts. Changing the "if I get better" to "when I get better" because you will. You may need to work hard, but you will get there because you are strong. Believe in yourself and tell yourself you CAN do it.
Maybe when your mom reads the book she'll start to realize why people SH and maybe start to understand you more. You never know. 
PM me if you ever need something, or you just want to chat with something going through the exact same thing. I'm always here. 
Stay strong and hang in there,
Alessa
