Wow...you deal her on a regular basis? Bravo you, I agree with Lycoris, even though she has a legitimate reason for certain behaviors, you don't have to deal with being treated that way. And no offense, her behavior is rude, not only to you, but to others who have the same conditions as she...
A condition may be the cause or reason why you do certain things, but it is not an excuse, and it's even worse for her to treat you that way, and then lie...uh uh, no no.
dude thats bullshit that you are having to deal with. like voldenae said, her mental state may be the reason that she is acting out in the way she is but it's not an excuse. if she really wanted to change herself then she would. what you are saying about her doing things for the attention makes sense but maybe a way to help her would be to give her more positive attention rather than just giving her attention for all the negative things that she does. it could be as simple as asking her how her day was and listening to what she has to say. i went through a lot of the same things when i was a teenager (eating disorders, cutting, heavy drug use, etc.) and i think that if i had just had someone to listen to me, other then a psychiatrist i wouldn't have done those things. a lot of the friends that i had were more or less just people that i hung out with because they gave me attention. i understand that it's hard for you to put up with all of the things that she does but i'm sure she would benefit from your support and understanding.
