First I would like to point out that I'm not as ghostly white as my picture looks. I actually have a really nice tan. :)
Hey, I just read this for the first time in a long time and I realized I sounded like a complete female Rainman. Anyway, I'm pretty much amazing, haha. I love to help people out with minor or major problems, so you ask me anything and I will answer it to the best of my ability! My favorite topics to give advice on are DEBATE, FRIENDS, POLITICS, MUSIC, and SPORTS (a recent thing!). I'm a typical Texas (college) football fan. That's pretty much it, so get to asking questions and stop reading this! :)

My dad pasted away from leukemia 4 months and 10 days ago (March 1st). Well right now, we're (my mom, brother, and I) in Ireland visiting family. We've been here for about 3 weeks. Well for then past 2 weeks my mom has been acting very different and forgetful. When she goes to do the dishes or something, when she's done, she'll come and sit down then get up and say that she needs to do the dishes. When she gets into the kitchen and sees that there are no dishes (because she already did them) she'll ask "Who did the dishes? I was about to do them!" It's so weird. She'll also repeats herself all the time and never wants to go out or do anything.
We're all so worried about her but we don't know what to do. My family members want us to get her to see a specialist here in Ireland but my brother and I want to cut our trip short and deal with it once we get back to the states. We don't know which is better.
At first we thought she's like this because of the loss of my dad but she's gone over 4 months without anything weird like this so why now? Any help?

I think she needs to get help as soon as possible. She could be developing schizophrenia or another type of personality disorder. Talking to her wont help, get her to a specialist as soon as you can. It doesn't matter how long ago it was, traumatic events have a serious effect on the mind. Sometimes people can't handle these events as well as others so it leads to personality disorders. Take the movie Hide and Seek for example. (a traumatic event turns a man schizophrenic)
I didn't say she was hearing voices at all and I wasn't comparing your life to a movie. I was just saying that if you wanted an EXAMPLE then to take a look at the plot of the movie, not the movie itself. I'm sorry if I offended you in any way, that really wasn't my intention. I was just trying to say that MAYBE she could have a personality disorder because she experienced a traumatic event.
