I'm always sad (but with a neutral face to hide it) because I have tons of problems that I'm incapable to fix it and I wouldn't be surprised if I'm actually depressed, but the (allegedly) depression itself isn't a problem, the problem is how people are starting to notice it.
It's terrible to come back home and have to deal with my mother or someone else from my family telling me to go to the church or visit a psychologist because I'm always "sad" or using the PC. My mother is the worst part because I used to go to the church, the gym, parties, etc and she used to criticize me for this. Now she's criticizing me for not doing these things.
I just want to be left alone. How can I make these people understand this?
Probably would get better if you didn't live with your mom? Get some help or help yourself. Find things that you like to do (if you can't find any you are probably depressed and/or lazy) and maybe you will start seeing things in a different light. Live for yourself, not for others. You really can do anything.

We have a small business. If I leave, it ends and the whole thing falls apart.

Yes. What do you mean by neutral face? Staring into the void, staring to the floor?
I'm sad all the time too. I don't hide it at school anymore.

Not smiling and not sad.

That's probably false if your mom noticed.
I can't exactly help you. Just tell her to mind her own business with kind words. Go to church once in a while to show her you're still "happy" or whatever she likes.
