Why is my mom acting weird?

Maybe she has depression, or something is bothering her?

Okay. Yeah, we were going to move to Seattle because my dad lost his job, but it didn’t work out, so we had to move here. Thanks, that might work.

I’ve never thought of my mom able to have depression. She used to be so happy and do stuff with us but now, it’s just sad.

Anytime(:

Well, depression is something that can develop…it’s not something you have always had and always will have.

Oh. hmm… I might talk to my dad about it. thanks.

She could be depressed. She could be having trouble adjusting. If she’s moved in with her parents, well it’s kinda hard for you to imagine but moving back in with parents is not easy. You dont know what her childhood was like. And if it is your dad’s parents, well adjusting to the inlaws is never easy. Or it could be something else. My suggestion, talk to your dad about your concerns. And remember, your mother is a person, she can be stressed and sad and depressed and all the rest of it. People get that way. And it’s ok to be experiencing some sadness once in a while. If it doesnt go away you may want to voice your concerns. But otherwise, try not to fret too much. Living with parents as an adult with a family is extremely stressful.

She is depressed. She is s grown woman who had to move back in with her parents, and whos future is uncertain due to your fathers job loss. You cannot cheer her up only with words. She is going to need some professional help. Either a doctor or your church.
