FaBMX, obviously your mother is not at all observant. Perhaps she doesn't want to observe anything. To get people to acknowledge something they don't want to acknowledge, you need to make it easier for them. Don't scream, it gets you nowhere. Ideally, you want them to think it was their idea. Take their thinking by easy stages (over several days, if necessary) from something they agree with to where you want it to go.
For example (highly condensed): "I haven't been a cheerful helper to you, Mom, for the past two years."
"No, you haven't."
"I want to be."
"Yes, you should."
"I try to be cheerful, but there's something like a lead weight that has been on me for the last two years."
"You should pull yourself together."
"I try to, but I can't do it myself."
"What do you expect me to do about it?"
"If you could get me a doctor's appointment, it might help me to be a cheerful helper to you again."You don't have to follow that script, but the point of persuading people to agree with you is to show them that they want to agree with you, that it will be good for them too.
The doctor may ask you questions about how you feel. Don't just answer how you feel at the moment, but over the last weeks and months. He may ask about eating, and sleeping, and whether you get tired easily, and how school is going. He may refer you to a specialist, which means another appointment. The specialist will ask similar questions, but probably in more detail. You may be prescribed medication; and there will be more appointments set up to see how the medication is working.

I think I might have screwed up... I have been happier last couple of weeks or month or so.. cause i started smoking weed.. but weed made me want to get help.. cause i wanted to enjoy weed without having to do it be happy.. Make any sense? she said something about she will figure out the insurance and get me an apt. ( the insurance is so screwed up right now.. My dad was working at company A.. then he went to B ( union ) .. then he said screw B cause he wasn't working enough and went back to A... ) so see.. everything is screwy.. But I won't let her forget that i need it.. IF i get a good chance to talk to my dad.. I will.. He has noticed i have been happier lately.... Just dosn't know why Hopefully he will go somewhere tonight.. and I will just go with him.. and talk.. I dont want to at the house... unless mom and my sister are gone...
