He was driving the speaker nuts, and so she convinced him to leave, which brought her great relief. So the sentence means: "I think the relief (that came to me as the result) of finally convincing him to leave was vindication (that is, confirmation) of the insanity that I was descending into (as the result of him driving me nuts)."
