It is very difficult to try to keep an intimate relationship going under these circumstances. Your GF does, in fact, need space right now. She needs to focus on her recovery. She is of no use to anyone else if she cannot take care of herself.

I would urge you to try to do the hard thing and step back a bit from this situation. Do not even think about trying to force your way into some kind of regular contact with her. It's hard, but this is where she is. If you really love her, not because you want to control her or own her, but becuase you lover her unconditionally, you will give her that room to try to heal.

Giving you strength and support!! You can do this!!
