You said it yourself:

we both have depression an emoional problems an a lil bit of trust issue

People, whether young adults or adults, with depression, emotional problems, and trust issues should not be pursuing relationships.

Look, even if you do love this girl, there's just no sense in being with someone who brings you down. She's a drag. I'm, you're, and everyone else is sure sorry about her family problems, but she's going to have to learn that she can't puke her problems all over everyone else and expect them to just keep taking it. It's emotionally draining.

Do what you can to be a happy person with a happy life. If that means cutting people out who are pessimistic and depressing drags, then sorry-but so be it.

We all have had broken familys and poor situations in our youth. That doesnn't give us a license to walk around being miserable and making everyone around us miserable.

The best way she can grow and mature here is to experience someone in her life telling her to shape up or ship out. That doesn't mean you can't be supportive, it just means that you want to be happy. If you just keep going along with her slow downhill ride, she'll just bring you with her and you'll never get her out or be the hero.

Yes you both need help..and you must tell her out straight..hey if we really want this to work for us (and then tell her how you do) then we must accept the fact we need to get with a professional..someone from a church..or life coach..or someone you both trust..but I do think you need to both go and she sounds like she needs some medication and psycho therapy..if you don't seek this help ASAP..its not going to work..and if you take a break thinking its the answer, its not! Taking a break now with out the help of a professional guiding you is like blowing your realtionship up..so the questions is.. how much do you honesty value this relationship.. ?? if you want it to last..pick up the phone and get some help. Good luck!
