text: This is hard question to answer because there are so many variables to your mother's action. Like her age, is she possibly going through menopause. Or if she is older these might be the early signs or Alzheimer's. If it's menopause there isn't much you can do to help her, or yourself just steer cleer when she is having a mood swing. If you think it might be something else it's best to get her tested before it progress into something more serious.
