Sorry to hear.
Me too, high five! Her behaviour is not excusable. Yes I believe it's mental health related but I also don't use that as a cop out as she's had the offer of help/interventions her whole life and instead likes to make out she's smarter than us all, including doctors.
Instead she likes to make out WE are the liars and that she's so hard done by, that's why it's incredibly validating this thread exists as people have found it very hard to believe me that she's actually like this. She's also just getting worse and worse with age. We thought in time and through having kids she would grow out of it but nope.

I've had major family trauma but have somehow managed not to become a gaslighting Walter Mitty type leaving a trail of destruction in my wake, funny that.
