Hi,
Thank you for your query. I can understand your concerns.
Your mother is having compulsive talking (or communication addiction disorder ) i.e. more talkative than usual or having pressure to keep talking.
It is a form of mania. She needs mood stabilizer e.g. Oxcarbazepine since sleeping pills are not working.
Consult a psychiatrist.
