This woman has a self-admitted history of mental illness. Is she off her meds at this time? Who knows?
But in addition to mental illness, IMO she suffers from rudeness, boorishness, and downright stupidity. Or ... maybe it is all mental illness and she's really a sweet, intelligent thing under all of her vile behaviors.
