re: My girlfriend tried to kill herself

I'm confused about where this update post is, but regardless, to the OP: You made the correct decision. You can care for her, but you need to be out of this permanently for your own good. She needs professional help. Seriously. If you want to tell her family, fine, but after that, cut all ties.

Can you imagine bringing children into this relationship and her still thinking you're going to leave her and that she might be successful in killing herself at some point?
