Answer 1

Maybe encourage her nicely to work on losing weight.  Volunteer to go on walks with her, short ones at first; get her active and eating healthier.  People that lose weight get off alot of medications and get healthy.  Show her this, and there's alot of links to click on for more info.:

Answer 2

Tell her how you feel about her problems and ask her what does she wants you to do; its more to life than complaining about things she could try to work on. Thats not your job, all you can do is be there  

Answer 3

my mum is the same way. She talks to me since i was a toddler about her mental illness. It really makes me sad every time she mentions it, but she don't seem to notice my awkward behavior untill i finally told her that i was sorry but there nothing i can do for her except talking. sit with ur mum and tell her ur sorry about what she went through and maybe tell her that u love her and stuff like that. I talk to my mum about her problems b/c nobody else listens to her and it make her even worse.
