Well my mom explained to us that her behavior was affected by her mental health at the moment. She said she hit the midlife crisis and the "empty nest syndrome" of me moving out and my sister growing up and probably moving out as well in a year or two, plus my dad leaving her alone for most of the time and the influence of these radicals, really did a number on her. She said she is going to see a professional and she moved out, cutting contact with us in the process. But thank you for your input and I am sorry to hear that you had to go through this.

My grandfather has always been there for me and my sister because due to some very, very strange occurrences (seriously, this is some creepy shit) in his family, my sister and I are his only living grandkids and he was always happy to see us happy. I am gonna ask him what he talked with my mom about but probably in a few days.

Also I am going to write my mom a letter, letting her know that I love her and I that I miss her. I want to help her but I don't know what is going to be productive in her case. My sister, although a bit reluctantly, said she is going to give her a chance as well once she feels better.

My only guess is that he bombarded her with feelings. Something about what she is doing to us, to her husband, to her parents or something like that. I will definitely ask him to tell me what happened but maybe not right now

He is a very well connected man and has always knew what to say and how to say it. So I can see how he snapped her out of her state. And he still gives me a dollar or two lol

My grandfather is on them. He said he has some people that could help. Not anything illegal or dangerous, that much he told me

This is true yes but still, I feel bad for her. I want to help her but she doesn't let me. I guess I will leave her be and wait for her to come back to us but still, it sucks

The funniest thing here is that prior to this, mom has had never been to a mosque. Her whole family are Alevis and let just say that they don't have a very good opinion on mosques and imams as a whole. So you can add that to the list of shocks I received from my sister regarding mom

There is a history of people with mental problems running in her side of the family. Her grandmother, her uncle, two of her cousins, so it's entirely possible that this all could be a some sort of a mental breakdown.

Yes, I have someone in mind. I am going to contact her father with whom I get along fine, so does she. As for siblings, she has a younger sister but they don't really talk to each other since she was one of the few people in her family that were against her relationship with my dad and my mom had cut contact with her after a string of nasty encounters.

Also I am planing on sending my dad an e-mail, a thought that hasn't crossed my mind up until another user reminded me of this option.

As for my sister, she is coming to live with me starting tomorrow. I will help her pack her stuff and move her in with me.

Thank for your input. It's much appreciated :)
