I know how you and your mother feels, it's only until you suffer from deppression that you know how it actually feels, like something that you can't just simply 'snap' out of.
I remember my brother (he's bipolar, used to have psychosis and delusions and that jazz) telling me that when he was with his psychiatrist, when talking about how he wanted a girlfriend, the shrink said to just "go out and pull" and encouraged getting drunk.
I understand that doctors have alot of patients to see, but to say that to someone with a mental illness no matter how serious, to just dismiss it won't help.
I hope your mum finds the right help, and finds someone willing to provide it.
Take care x
