It could be due to underlying conditions like high BP or chronic stress or other mental health related issues.
To some extent this is normal you can't do much about it, with age such thing will happen you can communicate with her about it but from my own experience you need to understand our previous generation are way more stubborn than us and best way to tackle this is not taking anything personal.

I don't think she would agree to visit a doctor or work on herself to fix anything for the betterment of the family all you can do is don't involve much into it and keep yourself and your newly started family if there is any, out of it as much as you can.

Hey , thanks ,yes makes perfect sense , I talk to her little and on important aspects only and yes ,she's lot stubborn on changing herself so I guess I and others would have to change ourselves.

"Lately" is the keyword here.
Try to understand why her behavior has changed.

Anyone feel as if it’s hard to stay with a company when you’re the only one of color? (&young) I’ve work for 3 companies in past 5 years and have yet to make meaningful colleague relationships.

I feel it takes away some of the joy of having to go to work.

I clearly don’t want to misstate anything but is there some general, vague language that can be used?
