People have the wrong idea that these illness are a disgrace to the family, and a stigma. But it is only a sickness like any other. So here the parents are not willing to admit and get you treated then tell your other relatives to speak and convince them, the sooner the better for you. Consider speaking to a professional yourself, such a a school counselor or the school nurse. They can help you deal with your parents, or help you find other solutions if needed.

How can you tell your parents that you want to see someone about your depression?
You could try sitting down with them in a calm and private setting, and express your feelings openly and honestly. Let them know that you've been struggling with your mental health and think that speaking to a professional would be helpful. Emphasize that seeking help is a positive step towards feeling better.
What if you tell your parents you think you suffer from depression and they laugh?
Get an appointment with your school counselor and talk to them! Really tell them how you feel, and what your fears are. No matter what you say, they will not laugh, and they will not say anything like "Oh, grow up!" If the counselor feels you are suffering from depression, they will take the steps to be sure your parents "get" it, and that you get the help you need.

What would you do if your girlfriend was upset I think i suffer from depression and my boyfriend seems to think that he shouldn't have to help me when i feel down What would you do?
Here's the thing on both sides of the fence. First of all from the girlfriend's point of view: I believe that your boyfriend should be willing to help you feel better without having to be asked. If he doesn't, then maybe he is not the right one for you. On the boyfriend's behalf though: The only one that can help you out of a depression is yourself. It doesn't really matter if he is attentive or not, if you are depressed then feeding your depression with sympathy is not the answer either. I think you should talk to your boyfriend and then if you feel you are suffering from serious depression, get some professional help.
