Yes.
The way I see it you have 3 options.
1. Have a "friendship" with her where you only talk about pleasant, trivial things, since she doesn't want to be there for you through thick and thin. She is only a fair weather friend.
2. Blow her off. Don't say anything to her about the past, but just keep telling her you can't get together or don't have time and eventually she will move on and leave you alone.
3. Remind her that you were hospitalized for depression and she made it clear that she couldn't handle being your friend through that bad period for you, and that you don't want to invest in a friendship with someone who won't be your friend in hard times as well as good times. And then see how she responds. It's entirely possible that something in her life has changed and she has new perspective now and feels badly that she abandoned you. Or she's a self-absorbed jackass.
I personally vote for option 3. I'm all for being blunt and honest with people if I can. But then again, you may not want that drama right now, so option 2 might be easier.
Good luck,
