I am not going to sit here and say that there is any one absolute way you can stop your mother. If she is going to do it she willl do it. THe healing must come from within her.
Your mother is lucky to have someone like you who cares about her  .
maybe it would be helpful if you called a crisis line and asked them what to do. I'm sure they know of resources that would be of help.

“In depression . . . faith in deliverance, in ultimate restoration, is absent. The pain is unrelenting, and what makes the condition intolerable is the...feeling felt as truth...that no remedy will come -- not in a day, an hour, a month, or a minute. . . . It is hopelessness even more than pain that crushes the soul.”-William Styron
