When you say she is boarderline (sic) do you mean she has borderline personality disorder? If so that is exceptionally difficult to treat and there may not be much you can do.

Apparently your mother is over 21 which makes it very difficult for you to do much of anything not impossible but difficult.
You need to petition the courts for guardianship of her, that means that you control how her SSI is used for her. Paying rent, food, utilities ect.
It is going to take a Court order though which will mean a 24 hour psych evaluation.
It is a hard battle so be prepared.
