Answer 1

Because you don't tell us how old you are this one is difficult to answer.

If you have a dad, talk to him - he should know if your mother is depressed and he can help her.

If your mother has just had a baby this could be post-natal depression and she might need to see the doctor for help.

Do you have a Grandparent, Aunt or Uncle who you could talk to about this?  If you are a teen, you could call your family doctor and tell them what is going on.

If you think there is a problem between your parents, then hug your mom and tell her that you love her and that you want to help in any way you can.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

umm.. hug her, kiss her, and tell her that your always there for here and that you love her. If you can drive, buy her like flowers or a plushie, or something!

Answer 3

It is hard to give advice when we don't know the background.  Do you know why she is sad?  Divorce? Stress?  If you don't know what is going on, it may be good to talk to her.  She may just need someone to talk to, or need to know that someone cares.  She may not say anything because she doesn't want to stress you out, but it sounds like you are stressed already.  You need to say something to her.  Let her know you are concerned, and that you are there for her if she needs you.  If you are not comfortable with that, maybe talk to one of her close friends or family members and tell them your concerns.  Maybe they know what is going on and can help you, or maybe they would be comfortable talking to her and helping her.  Good Luck!
