How do I convince my mom to let me go for counseling?

Anonymous
Its been long over due. I have had real terrible depression, so much so that it lead me to suicide and back from it years ago. I got out of the situtation, but that affected me bad, my stress got to me and made things worse for me. Now as I write this I am a busy person, so my mind is a little off these things and I am stable. But times come when I feel so distracted and dysfunctional at daily life, I end up feeling I need help. I can't articulate myself at times, at the easiest of things. I forgot things at times. There have been times where I was so lost that I nearly drove all the way home in the car, forgetting my mom at the shopping centre. I lose track of days and times sometimes. I feel sick and tortured by these feelings.
