I am sure there is some type of service you can reach out to for help.
I have been unsuccessful in convincing them. They have both been in dreadfully abusive relationships including the one with my Dad. Even after my mother had been beat up and bruised, she refused to call the police or see a DR to get the proof she needed to file charges or build a case.
Fortunately I was in therapy and taking meds to fight my own battle with bipolar and my therapist could advise me on their behaviour and my role. If not I am sure my worry for them would have messed up my own life and relationships.
Bipolar isn't a simple diagnosis. Depression, stress, and relationships can all cause cycling in a person.
Assuming that your mother is bipolar, take a look at this WebMD site for some advice.

I suggest you take a step back and protect yourself and wait for her to ask you for help especially considering your efforts so far.
I did and when my Dad moved out after a fight, I packed up his things and asked him to stay out. My mother divorced him and 15 years later she is happier and finally stopped being mad at me for interferring and admits to having a battered wife syndrome.
She is now presenting all her bipolar fury on a new partner.
Good luck!
