You need to encourage your Mom to get treatment for herself and share with her the impact on you. If she has a therapist, youmay want to consult the therapist yourself for a better sense of your Mom's stability but you cannot allow her problems to become your own. A support group for co-dependency could be very helpful to you in establishing and maintaining your own boundaries around your Mom's mental illness.

Is there anyone else to help you? Is she able to care for herself? Maybe a personal care attendant woudl be of help. You can try to get one through social services, which would be through the county you live in. I would start off part time, if the money isn't an issue. It would be best to help your mother adjust to things.
