Friend using AI

Hey! I'm looking for some advice here and want to check myself to make sure I am not overreacting in this situation. I have done quite a lot of work on myself and I have done consistent work in therapy for a couple of years now.

People in my environment started pointing out how much I have changed, which I am pretty okay with, but my friendships have also changed.

I have this friend that I was very close with that now started to turn to AI as a therapy companion, saying how she is healing.

She started saying how we (all her friends) can no longer understand her and how we all take the wrong thing from what she says and create the wrong impression about her. She is always trying to frame the narrative so you would agree with her. As a consequence, she ends up arguing with everyone, including myself, and trying to set the boundary of "do not tell me your opinion." I already processed it with AI.

The majority of our conversations have now become her complaining about how a friend is misjudging her because of something she said, or us arguing.

I appreciate AI can help, but I feel she lives in an illusion. I tried to speak with her, but we always end up arguing as she always has to have the final word.
