As in, you need someone who will pull you away from the bridge verses one who will push you off for annoying her.
If you're not ready to move on, you need to be patient-this is new to her as well, she may have not filtered just how serious this is yet- you two have only been together for a few months. Speak to her during good times about your condition and why you do the things you do, that you have no control over it, that you do your best, that it is not all of you, but it will be part of you and that you will be there for her, but she needs to be there for you.
But while you're being patient, she should be sympathetic with you. A relationship is supposed to be even, it can't be fun and love all the time. Bad things happen, and your partner needs to be able to carry as much weight as you do. I saw this quote from Marilyn Monroe and I think it suits this place "“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.” Much love to you, I hope you find the answers you need

Well, I guess you're pretty much right: Sometimes she is making things even worse! But since she is my first girlfriend (I had some kind of relationship before, but... I would have never really called her my girlfriend, so...) I always thought a relationship is making things (life) much more complicated. She might sometimes bring me closer to suicide than I would normally be (cause kicking on somebody who's laying on the ground is never a good idea), but nobody should ever forget that she is the only person who could make me laugh. Even if she doesn't do that often she could. I'm having great times with her and it looks like I can make her happy. This gives me some kind of sense in my life which wouldn't be there without her. I'm not saying that I would instantly kill myself if she wouldn't be there, but it's a lot easier now to get away from bad thoughts if you know that somebody would be missing you. That might only help a very little bit, but... You know what I mean, right?
I'm not sure if speaking to her is such a great idea. I don't want to get her angry or something, because at the end I would just be the bad guy. Again.
Are you sure that I should Start talking to her about me again? Wouldn't that just be messing around?
