That's like asking if it's normal to catch the flu even if you're wealthy. Depression is a disease, not something you can control.
And this isn't helping. Beating yourself up because you're not grateful, when depression has nothing to do with how grateful you are, is just going to make things worse. Having somebody as close to your mum contributing that nonsense is just going to make things worse.
You need to talk to a doctor. I hope you can make your mum understand what you're going through, and if not, find somebody else who can help you through this. If you don't have somebody in your circle or friends or family you can confide in(ask around...I bet you'd be surprised to find somebody else going through exactly what you're going through), there are also support groups for people dealing with depression in most countries, try to find one.
IIN to get depressed even if your Wealthy?
