It's honestly understandable that you truly care for her and are emotionally invested in her well-being and your relationship together. But from where I sit you have one life to live and you have to ask yourself if you really see this woman as a partner you can build a happy, healthy, stable life with. Is she someone you'd be comfortable leaving your small children with if you had to go out of town for business? She seems to have quite a lot going on and I honestly fear there's a better chance she won't get better as she grows older.
There may be some way for you to communicate that you care about her and will leave the door open to help if she needs a friend. But unless you want to spend your life miserable because you feel obligated to see to her safety, I suggest you walk away. I'm sure she's a sweet person whomsimcerely wishes she were mentally and emotionally more stable. But people like that, even if they aren't mean or evil, can be emotional black holes that spiritually bleed you dry.

What he said .
Here's an observation I've discovered over time . Amazing people get amazing lives . If you saddle yourself with dysfunction and sadness you will have a life of sadness and dysfunction. Ideally, your partner should make you raise your game . That in turn influences your children and the people around you . And one day you wake up and you are blessed beyond measure and you feel true gratitude. That doesn't come from nursing somebody through life . It's YOUR journey bro, you get to take it once.
