Of course its easier to talk to your partner or best friend, If they are similar age, how could they advise you. Im not saying your mom is the person, but you certainly need a mature adult to speak with.
My oldest daughter is now 46. She is Bipolar and Borderline. She tried to hide this when young, It only prolonged treatment for her. Now with 2 kids in jail, its really sad and hard to give a damn (frankly). The younger you are, the more people care about you. The older you get, you have lost people in your life and less people will be there for you. I know Im being blatant, but that is how it is. You have to give up any games to get healthy. I know you would not see them as games. Its really hard work, but only you can do it.
