My mother constantly talks to herself
She constantly looks for ways to argue with everyone in the house
She had these days when she's very very nice (it never seems normal) and then the next day or the next HOUR she could be back to picking fights with people
When she is angry she breaks things
She is always depressed and always talking her mess about her problems to us, we are her kids, yes we are mature and older but we do not want to no about it.
Sometimes when you don't even do anything she just snaps at you out of the blue.
What's really weird is how she can be angry woman one minute and nice woman the other minute, this is just more than your typical mood swing.
She doesn't like going to the doctor at all, I've tried convincing her. She's done other things but me and my sister get really concerned about her and so does my father.

If we tell my mom we do not want to hear about all her negativity and tell her nicely, we get cussed out and she says she's going to tell us anyway and if we say something next time she is going to beat the **** out of us. She does this all the time.
She is always fishing for attention and compliments.
She jumps to conclusions about everything and is very unreasonable, very paranoid I guess you could say. It's not just to us kids either so it's not just us, my father goes through the same thing.

negativity meaning the bad stuff she has to say about family members esp. my dad, who lives with us.

What you probably have on your hands is a rapid-cycling bi-polar. I've seen way too many people like that. You need a one-two cocktail, which is an anti-depressant and a mood stabilizer. Talk to a doctor or a psychologist yourself and make sure you describe ALL of the symptoms you listed. Good luck.

Sounds like your mom is suffering from depression or some other disorders. She has to get medical help if you guys are going to be able to get along.....Your gonna have to all team up together and tell her, her behavior is not acceptable. Easier said then done, I know....
My mother suffers from, depression, anxiety, alzheimers, drug dependancy, and a host of other conditions with the word psycho in front of it, and the abuse that I have had to endure throughout my childhood and also as an adult, has been an issued I had to work to overcome. I have struggled to get her help, take care of her, hold her up, sit with her when she was lonely because she chased away everyone else who tried to take care of her. As a child, I have witnessed several of her suicide attempts, and have been left alone to fend for myself while she was hospitalized for another nervous breakdown. She has called me every foul name in the book and has done her best to destroy every relationship that I tried to have with other people. She has my children and does not know her great-grandchildren. I chose not to speak to her for years, because I had to go on with my life and I refused to allow her to destroy me any longer. I brought her to my home because no other family member wanted to take care of her. Every ones exact words were "She is a God D*** Nut and there isn't anything I can do for her, put her in a facility and throw away the key"
Now that I have cheered you up, I wish you the Best of luck. It is not easy to live with someone like this. Hugs and more hugs

I think the important thing here is whether she has always been like this or whether it is a recent development. If so, then I think your sister, father and yourself need to seek help and advice from a professional medic as to best way to deal with the situation. Your mother certainly sounds as if she is a very unhappy lady , please don't allow this to rub off on yourself. I hope you find and receive all the help you need for her.

I suggest that you seek a mental health professional for her. She needs either some therapy or maybe some mild medicine because she sounds like bi-polar or something to that degree. Also pray for patience and energy so you can deal with her because it may some time to rule out what wrong with her.
