I understand your concern towards your mother. She seems to be suffering from depressive as well as psychotic symptoms from whatever you have mentioned. However more clarity is needed regarding her problem to decide on severity of the condition. Don't worry it is not her fault, it is the hormonal and chemical fluctuations in brain as a result of stress which is taking a toll on her mental health. It is manageable with appropriate treatment, so that dysfunction due to the same can be reduced and your family's quality of life will improve. Some counselling sessions along with medical help might be useful. I would also be more than happy to help you with that if you are looking for further online suggestions. Discussions will be held confidential. You can directly consult with me through Practo as needed. Online chat consultation is also available.

Hi.. Regarding your mother there are two possibilities one that she might be suffering from severe depression with psychotic symptoms (being suspicious towards your father) or psychosis per Se. The treatment of each varies so I would suggest that you consult a psychiatrist for proper assessment and management.
