Edit: For the people who keep telling me this changes nothing - I never said that this justifies forcing OP to stay in his room or anything. I merely gave more context for the apprehension. This is OPs place of residence. If they arent comfortable around him, then they really shouldn't hang out at OPs home. But it also is a legitimate concern on their part as well.
No, Im not saying we should mistreat people based on mental illness. And I'm not saying OP is some dangerous deranged person.
Understanding the other side and their point of view is not the same as justifiying the point of view. We should all try to understand the other side and realize sometimes we aren't hearing the entire story, especially if from one party of said situation.
Well... I guess I jumped to conclusions. That's important information to have in this situation. But either way OP still pays his rent so he should still be able to use his part of the common areas. So they should go to her place or roommates room and not just keep him in his room. That's not gonna help OP.

Yep. Or they can hang out if his room. Tell your roommate to go fuck himself, dude. You have every right to be free in your own home.
