It sounds like she may be getting tired of being depressed and miserable...and even though she may not be able to admit it to you yet, she can see it inside and needs to take a step back to focus on what is truly best for her.
This doesn't mean she doesn't love you. It means she is making a decision for herself to put herself first and take care of herself.
The best thing, I think, that you can do is communicate with her. Let her know your feelings about her and how much you care. Let her know your fears. But ultimately, if you are both ill, your relationship would not be healthy and would most likely self destruct along the way.
This can be a turning point in your relationship. Maybe this is a good spot for you to start working on yourself and getting yourself some help. I can see why you are scared. If she gets help and gets better, she's going to move on, she's not going to want to come back to someone who is still sick and not ready. If I were in your position, I might feel left behind....abandoned. But it's a choice too.
If you can both do the work on yourselves that you need to do to get emotionally and mentally healthy, there could be a chance for your relationship to grow into a healthy and very special one, but if only one of you gets treatment, then the other one is more likely to travel on to greener pastures as to not sabotage their own healing.
Have you met with a Counselor or Therapist? Can you? This would be a good place for you to start to get yourself back. But again, that would be your choice.
Keep posting.
