Since my father died, my mother exhibited troubled behaviors. I was 16 years old then. I don't know the main reasons about the psychological problems. What I know is I came from a poor family. Could it be a major factor that affects her behavior? We tried to give her some medicines but I don't think it's effective. I'm so afraid what will happen to her in the future :(

Hi.... I agree with most of what the others have said... but being poor can also cause a lot of stress, so that may be another reason why she has the issues she has.... Maybe you could try talking with her and asking her what's wrong.... It could open up a whole line of communication between you and her... :)

Maybe your mom suffers from a trauma. Or, maybe because there are so many problems specially that you lose your breadwinner. At this point of time, she needs attention and love from her children. She needs people who will care for her, a very good environment. And the people around her should understand her. Just be patient to her. Hope she will recover soon.
