Your mother definitely needs help. I would suggest you to consult a psychiatrist ASAP for detailed evaluation and management.
Above unusual behaviour may be due to Memory disturbances/Psychosis

Hi I am sorry to hear that your mother is not well. How old is she? Does she have Medical problems like diabetes or High blood pressure.
You described few things suspiciousness, possible memory loss(e.g. asking Who you are) . If she is older it suggests memory issues with paranoia. It needs further evaluation and treatment. Please consult a Psychiatrist as soon as possible.
