I tried so far to dissuade her about drugs, but it's just made her angry, and our evening ended immediatley.
I'm trying to lead her back to her original profession, sometimes she accept my words, but mostly she grow sad.
I always highlight her good attributes, mostly she says: "Don't woo to me...i can't handle it"
You're asking about dating someone who has a severe mood disorder, a serious personality disorder, and on top of that is addicted to drugs? Why do you want to "help" her? Are you codependent? You can't even begin to help her in a significant way. You can be there for her to an extent but that can lead to you getting damaged. But being attracted to someone like that may mean you yourself are somewhat damaged. I'd look within and start there. Let me tell you, if you're not aware, you'll be in for a world of hurt.
