sounds yucky and like it is really exhausting
tough to address, really tough
some thoughts from me for whatever they are worth....
"wow you really don't give yourself enough credit! you are a smart woman and I know you can find a solution somewhere for somethings, not everything but somethings!"
if you want to use the religious angle there's the serenity prayer....ya know that one right?when she rejects your suggestions...
"when you can't find answers it's important to open every single door you can, otherwise you will never know what opportunities you denied yourself""what you "deserve" is in large part determined by what you "accept""
"people write their own stories...how are you going to write yours"or maybe just a straight out you are draining the life out of me!! I can't stand it!!
and yeah you'd do well to limit contact with her, she sounds not just jealous, but like she's sucking the life out of you, making you feel bad for who you are...you are NOT obliged to fix her
there are too many people living in such a misery as you describe, too many.
good luck,
sg
