@black-roses I am sorry you get blamed for things that are not directly related to the other person's problem.

I would talk to your therapist if you have one and they can guide you on what is a reasonable course.

In the meantime, you could reinterpret what they are saying. If the say it is your fault, you can silently to yourself say that it is not her talking but the mental health issue. She is not talking about you but talking about how she feels, that the world is against her.

This takes a lot of fortitude on your part, but not reacting can keep you from becoming entangled in their confusion.

Trying to direct them seems like an uphill battle. Nothing will work from the sounds of it.

Hope you find a way to protect yourself by avoiding reacting to the emotional barbs being thrown in your direction.
