getting verbally attacked for following her moral code like that has a major impact on Mami's psyche, and it becomes the primary reason for her Witching out in the route
As if we needed more examples of how the Madoka universe is full of despair even excluding the direct influence of witches.
Is that different from the mother who was suicidal over her son that Mami couldn't save from a witch in a flashback?
The woman she saves there is also the mother. I don't know if there's definitive evidence that woman is the office lady, beyond it sort of matching up with anime chronology. The game does screw with all of the timelines though, literally, so that may or may not matter. Somebody who actually played the game might be able to say more.
