Of course not, there are many different mental illnesses. And having mental illness does not automatically equate to being incompetent. One of them psychopathy as an exampleUm mentally ill doesn't automatically equate to being a psychopath...
ETA: Psychopathy is a personality disorder, not mental illness, of course. But they can very well fake mental illnesses for their own purposes. Psychopaths understand what they are doing though and distinguish right from wrong.
So when we are talking about competency and faking, it's about distinguishing between severe mental illness (=incompetence) and personality disorder (=competence).
ETA2: so when you say that LV for sure has mental illness, because otherwise she wouldn't do what she did -- I respectfully disagree with this statement
