In what way do you get support at this group? In what way is it a good group? Nothing you wrote made the group sound supportive or good. If the group leader cannot control the group (sounds like she doesn't realize she has all the power--if she kicks people out, they would probably have to go to jail), then can you ask her for referrals to groups that would offer what you need? Maybe there is even a group at the same place that has a different leader?
