Alright, first. You're not a fool, your emotions are valued, perhaps even just on here.
I don't think I'm alone when I say, I can really relate to how you feel. I talk to my mom more than anyone else, but I can't really "talk talk" either.
There could be countless of reasons as to why I just don't get through, as to why YOU don't get through. To me it just seems like she's ignoring the obvious, perhaps not wanting to hear it? Maybe just not paying enough attention? Parents often react in the opposite way as you would've expected, often because they're worried, they're scared etc.
And sometimes, it's none of the above.
I'd advise you to catch her one-on-one, sit down with her and ask her for 5 minutes, where she just listens, explain to her how you feel.
Trust isn't something that just magically appears between people, it's a bond, a connection that takes a long time and a lot of work to be established and it needs to be nourished.
Your friends don't really come across as terribly trustworthy, nor real. Perhaps you shouldn't expect too much from them, unless the friendship improves. You could very well risk being more hurt, because the bond between you isn't that strong.
If possible, perhaps try to focus on the one person you may feel closest to, work on the friendship and build up trust.
Bottom-line would be, talk with your mother. If it doesn't pan out, then at least you know that you gave it a shot.
You're never really alone.
