She has actually told me she thinks in ill and thinks I have eSchizophrenia. cMy actual friends think she is lying as I'm doing good other than sever anxiety I'm doing good well that they know. I'm hiding a lot but that's another story.

She thinks you are schizophrenic? Where did that come from? I do not mean to marginalize schizophrenics, but in your particular situation, I find her behavior very amusing with that comment she made to you. You cannot take her seriously. Think of her this way. Everytime she opens her mouth, no actual words come out, just allot of noise. Think of the Marx brothers with Harpo blowing his horn. However, I can understand why you are upset. Mindlessness and the resulting mayhem for you,

Here is my suggestion. I would go to group. If she is there, do not say anything about yourself that is personal. When you find her not there, then you can share with the others in the group. You still can listen to the group, for there may be something you can learn. You still can relate to them as friends despite her being there. Ignore her. I suspect she will not go to that group of yours very long. I think when the others figure her out, they will also not take her that seriously and may even ignore her. Ths would be just them being human. FWIW
