How can i know if i suffer from depression?

Ok, so ive been feeling really down and ill recently, a few nights ago i decided to google my symptoms to see if i could figure out what's wrong with me. I found a list of symptoms for depression and i have alot of the symptoms. here are the symptoms i have;

Feelings of hopelessness and helplessness.
Low self-esteem.
Tearfulness.
Feelings of guilt.
Feeling irritable and intolerant of others.
Lack of motivation and less interest, and difficulty in making decisions.
Lack of enjoyment.
Suicidal thoughts or thoughts of harming someone else.
Feeling anxious or worried.
Slowed movement or speech.
Change in appetite or weight (usually decreased, but sometimes increased).
Unexplained aches and pains.
Lack of energy.
Disturbed sleep patterns.
Not performing well at work.
Taking part in fewer social activities and avoiding contact.
Feeling isolated.
Reduced hobbies and interests, and difficulties in home and family life.

I have no idea what to do, im 13 and my Mum will think im joking if i tell her about it. Does me having this many symptoms mean i have depression?

Don't hurt anyone. know that God can help you live a better life if you want him to help you. You can have a personal relationship with God by saying the prayer below. God is our Creator, all-knowing, all-powerful, eternal, holy, love. God loves us and sent us His Son, Jesus Christ, so we can go to heaven if we know and follow him. Forever means without end -- time on and on without death. Forever is what happens after we die. Either we go to heaven and be with God forever, or we go to hell which is very bad and painful forever. The good people who are saved believers in Jesus Christ go to heaven. The bad people go to hell. we need to know and follow God in this world to get to heaven in the next world. we follow God by loving and obeying him and loving others for him. Jesus Christ, God's Son, is our bridge to God. Jesus died on the cross to cancel our sins. we need to accept Jesus into our life as our Lord and Savior forever to receive God's blessing and forgiveness plus go to heaven to be with God forever after we die. This is about being a born-again Christian. Faith in God is a gift from God. You can pray for faith in God. Just speak out and ask God for the faith to believe in him and to follow him. Some people find faith in God when they realize the beauty in the world is made by God. Evolution can't explain the world's natural beauty, for example, the parks in the world, animals, flowers, peacocks, sunsets, butterflies, rainbows, etc. after you have your faith on, you can pray a sinner's prayer to be a born-again Christian. This prayer is very important and should be said with a sincere heart and faith in God. This is the prayer: "Dear God, I know that I am a sinner and that Jesus Christ is the sacrifice for our sins. I have done the following sins (state these out) and I pray to discontinue these sins. I pray to receive Jesus Christ into my life as my Lord and Savior forever. in Jesus' name, amen." I'm Lutheran and I like the Baptist churches too. Maybe you could find a Christian friend who could take you to church with them. You can pray to God about your daily life and have a Christian church pray for you.

We've all been there. It's going to be okay! I'm very sorry you feel this way, but don't get too upset. You are at a tough age. your mom will be concerned and will probably try to help you. try to talk to someone you love about it and find out why you feel this way. Prayer usually helps me a lot. Stay focused on the right things and it will pass. Don't bottle it in.
