How do you tell a friend she is bi-bolar and she can't have the baby daddy?

Seriously...she rants and raves at least 3-4 times a week. Literally, she screams, then cries, the screams some more. She has been arrested several times for "disorderly conduct" to which she is always sorry. She is obsessed with the father of her child. Horribly disillusioned. He told her (I heard it) "I am not your man, your body is garbage and I don't want you. I will take care of my child but YOU are not my child. Quit trying to use the baby. Don't become my enemy..." thats what he said and her reply... "We should just get married and you go your way and I go mines".... and later she cursed her children and then went into a crying spell.
What to do???

Obviously, she need help. There is no better person to help her get through her issues but a therapist.

I told her to go to the mental health clinic and get something to help her and she said "I'm not crazy." I think she really should as she is in a sad state of mind.

People in this state do not admit that there is something wrong with them because they could not recognize reason. It is much better to ask her to just talk to a therapist so that she could somehow vent her inner feelings. The therapist will surely help her with what she is going through.
My sister in law also has the same disorder. The good thing is my brother is a calm person and does not get mad when her disorder triggers. He calmly told her to seem a therapist and she obliged. If she didn't, I am pretty sure the marriage would have crumbled years ago.

She needs an expert's help asap. She has psychological problems... not accepting someone's decision shows a huge problem. She's delusioned and selfish... esepcially how she behaved towards the kids, as if they are responsible for her giving biorth to children to a guy who left her...

You are so right. I hadn't thought of it in terms of not accepting someone's decision but that's exactly it. She is very delusional. When I try talking to her, she jumps into a bipolar storm ranting and raving that I just don't understand her situation. I understand he don't want her !!! She is an otherwise sweet person, the kind who will genuinely give you the shirt she has on. But in this instance the bad outweighs the good. Thanks for the reply.

If that guy told her that, then she's better off alone. He doesn't respect her, how can he respect the kids? "Your body's garbage?" Really?
Some people can be living in denial, have serious mental issues that they are not aware of and become more dangerous than you know. Not to bring up bad memories, remember that lady in the south that messaged people on FB that she was going to kill herself and her kids? She did just that by driving her minivan into the river with her babies in it.
Your friend needs help, Lady. Right away!
