Craziness in the family

So ok there are a lot of things I really need someone else's opinion on! My sister-in-law is driving me up a wall and I wish that I could just tell her off without feeling bad about doing it. She just married my brother-in-law from my husband's side of the family. This girl is absolutely nuts!!! I mean ok maybe not literally but she acts like it. She's constantly trying to tell me how to take care of myself and things like that when she doesn't really take care of herself. She has supposedly been a midwife before but she's got NO degree that shows that she's had it! Everything that has ever happened to me suprisingly has happened to her as well. She was adopted, her parents are mentally disabled....I have a long history of mental illness...My biological father gave me up for adoption. My stepfather treated me and his first born child completely different. I was sexually assaulted so was she. I am persuing a career in Nursing and she's supposedly also doing the same. She always complains about her husband and how he doesn't care about her....and my husband is always working and off with other people! She controls her husbands every move. He cant talk to anyone even family without her getting upset that he's not paying enough attention to her. They live all the way in Arizona! No where close to any of us anymore. She's not working....He pays for everything. All she ever does is complain! I don't want to be rude because the last time I cut her off and didn't talk to her everyone told me I was being rude and disrespectful. Im just tired of her acting like she was god's given gift to the world! Any advice?

Just ignore her, don't talk to her or acknowlegde her exsistance. Family is family and yes its a horrible thing to say, but your happinesss and sanity is what matters. If your all alone and they're all gone all you've got is you, so don't make yourself unhappy.
