Teenage/adolescence is a period of major change in terms of biological and psychological state. It can be immensely stressful navigating through your newly attained sexuality and making sense of the various thoughts, impulses and urges. It is not uncommon for teenagers to go through an exploratory phase as you have gone through. Probably at that time you did not fully fathom the morality or consequences of your actions but now that you do, it is leading to this guilt and depressive ideation.
Telling your mother is probably not recommended. Please consult a Psychologist to get some perspective on how to accept this and forgive yourself.
Next Steps
If you are having active suicidal thoughts, please immediately consult a psychiatrist/psychologist or at the very least speak to a friend- you dont have to share the personal details with them but tell them how you are feeling.
