I have had a relationship with somebody I met when I was hospitalized with depression. What I remember from that is that we did not have much to go on apart from our mental issues. But al through the year we were together, I think the patience and understanding we could offer each other was really unique and I truly believe that in my current situation, where we share quite a lot of other things, these issue can really add to a relationship.

It sounds like in the hospital you had a relationship in which your many admirable skills were secondary if not unimportant. What mattered then was your patience, understanding, kindness, empathy.
What mattered most last night: your skills or your kindness?

it is just that she probably won't choose me.

The future can't be foretold (no matter what internal voices might say), but beliefs about the future can affect the future by affecting actions in the present.
It's risky to open oneself up. But if out of fear you make yourself more or less closed to her, that closedness gives out that you are not interested in her, and might help bring about her choice of someone else.
If you shoot and miss it can hurt a lot. But:
You miss one hundred percent of the shots you don't take.
********That also hurts a lot.********
