already got helped out, will update if it worked. thank you a lot yall 
(hey there, i am yasmine a 16 year old mdd`er that wants to seek help. i already have a terapist but i got him for my anger problems and depression and i dont really feel like talking to him about mdd. i think my sister does kinda see that my daydreaming isnt normal behavior (i tell her stories based of of my daydreams every night for like at least an hour) and she makes jokes about it or like tries and hits it to my parents and i sometimes join in as well. but my parents dont really see daydreaming as a problem and there for dont act seriously about those jokes. if i were to make jokes about depression i would directly get an appointment with my therapist. so i asked how to break it to them in the chatroom yesterday and i got the amazing tip to give them papers or show them sites about mdd so they know better what they are dealing with. sooo does anyone have any links of such websites and papers that are easy to understand but nevertheless give a good understanding? please post them in this thread.
and second how do i tell them in such a manner that they dont think its their fault. as a kid my mental state just really got fucked with because they hadnt figured out how to be a parent yet and they aready blame my short temper and depression on them self. i dont want them to think i am even more "insane" because of them. if they feel guilty its Always kinda difficult to talk openly to them about what bugs me so i dont want them to think that way.)

i am so sorry to hair your mom sees it as an attack that must be really frustrating as well. i think parents should get help and information about how to talk to your kids about mental situations. i mean they get teached how to react on the fu so why not on this.
