yeah, generally it's pretty safe. I was on a technicolor rainbow of medications, and most of them weren't too bad. Zoloft in particular was a wonderful thing IMO.
as for how to tell your mom, ask the doctor. I don't know your mom and mine's a psych nurse, so I didn't really have a problem with that, but your doctor can probably give you some really good advice.
I too had to take anti-depressants before. It was after I had Sebastian, I had post-pregnancy depression. I'm always here for you hon, and I just want you to know that I'm really proud of you.
About your mom, I think Sev's suggestion is a good one. Maybe you could also get some written information about what you're going through to give to her as well. It might help her understand what you're telling her better.
