This is difficult. I would NOT tell her when she's alone. Like you said, you don't know what she's capable of. Is she seeing a therapist? If she is, would it be possible to go to a session with her and tell her in the presence of the therapist?
Have you tried marriage counseling, or is it beyond that now? It might not even work with her if she's too ill.
I'm sure you know that she's a very sick person, and when she hit you it wasn't something that she could necessarily control. She might even need to be inpatient in a hospital mental health ward depending on the seriousness of her condition.
And remember that you might be viewed as an "ogre" for divorcing her when she's so sick. I mention this for your sake. If you plan on staying in the same area, friends might avoid you for leaving her in her hour of 'need.'
I wish I could give you more advice, but like I said this is difficult when she's so sick. Best of luck & please take care. Hugs, Lee
