Adolescent Depression
I'll be straight up. Trichotillomania, Depression, ADD, Anxiety Self harm and attention seeking is my problem. One of my siblings has OCD I have similar physical problems but not the mental one so I cannot say I might have OCD. If I think I have this do you think my teacher is convincing me that I don't? If I think I have this does it mean I'm just doing this to seek attention? That's what my friends say. I know this is also very harmful but I took an antidepressant the day I cut my hand 25mg I felt hyper. I was super hype. Anyway what can happen to a person who doesn't have Depression takes anti depressants? (Just curious)

Effects of antidepressants on a person who does not have depression can be chronic pain, fibromyalgia (it means kind of musculoskeletal pain with stiffness and localized tenderness) migraine prophylaxis, irritable bowel syndrome, pathological crying or laughing. So its best to consult a psychiatrist asap.

Well, you have described so many things.
But let me concentrate on depression and OCD first.
To establish the diagnosis of OCD you need to be evaluated in details by psychiatrist only.
Normal person should not take any medication, because adverse reactions occur at any stage.
Don't jump on the conclusion so easily on the basis of Google search.
Next Steps
Consult psychiatrist ASAP because your description lacks some details.
