Okay! Here's the deal! I attend some support groups for various
mental health conditions.

Okay. Here's the deal: Attending support groups for whatever reasons, be it e.g. Al-Anon, whatever, in my experience, has very basic confidentiality 'ground rules', re: "What's shared here, stays here!"
It's what allows such groups to actually function vs. dysfuntion.
(I, a woman, would feel similarly "respect & confidentiality breeched" in a similar experience, no matter *how* good/close that friendship.)
You do obviously care greatly about your friend. I wish you healing within your friendship.
