I think it was a implied (or directly shown, I didn't watch it that much) that she had an unhappy home life.

I think I read somewhere that she was actually meant to be one but, you know, they can't show that blatantly on a kid's program. Mr. Simmons was almost meant to be gay.

That wouldn't surprise me. TV shows, Nick shows in particular are known for putting things in that adult viewers understand but easily fly over the heads of child viewers.

Miriam was a champion bull rider and an olympic swimmer, then she married Big Bob and his overbearing personality created the emotional disconnect and depression we see now.

She was. There was a plan for a spin off targetted towards an older audience in which Helga's mom was even attending AA meetings.

Anyone who would name their child "Helga" probably is.
