Tell them. Explain to them what you are feeling, and what you would like to do about it. They should be happy to help you get through your situation.

That´s very difficult, I believe. Because it´s their interpretation, not your actions, that make you needing help looking like you needing attention. Focus on people who truly care about you.

Tell them. If they don't get it, then just provide some evidence. If they still don't get it, then it is not your fault. Sometimes, people won't understand and won't take even the smallest effort to try to understand you. It's common for people to not care, even within family.

I wrote my mom a letter about how depressed and directionless I felt about a year ago when they've been thinking that I was acting ot for no reason. Mom and dad did their best to help me out, and now we're closer than before again and more open on expressing our feelings.

Try researching about how you feel. For example, a wikihow site describing your feelings as symptoms. Sit down and talk it out calmly but firmly.

Describe in detail the problems you're having and how they are affecting your life. Then, describe how the help would address some of those problems. It could also help to get someone that your family trusts (maybe a therapist, teacher, friend?) to talk to them about why you need help.

You can explain them that depression etc can have serious bad effects on a person, maybe showing them some videos related to depression etc?

my mother was once saying the same thing, she never believed that I actually needed help, so I sat down with her and tried to talk though my feelings, so she understood why I wanted help.
