Wow, she may be a difficult person because of her mental illness, but it sure seems like she's surrounded by people who are just plain mean and inconsiderate to her. I'd say that the thing you need to work on, regarding her, is your compassion. But I would seriously consider what a douchey thing your SO is doing. Start taking a look at how he treats people, as I would see his treatment of her as a big red flag.
