Is she manic-depressive/bipolar? Or mildly schizophrenic? Whatever her disorder it does not make a relationship impossible if you BOTH want to continue with it. The main thing needed is to find out what the disorder is & learn everything that you can about it so that you can identify when it is the disorder speaking & know not to take it personally.
But even so it will not be easy for either of you & you will need a strong sense of your own self worth not to be hurt by the things she says. And a great deal of patience & internal calmness to ride the waves.
And also to recognise that she also is making a tremendous effort to monitor her own behaviour, even though she will not suceed all of the time & that the effort will generally be impossible to see from the outside.

But like I said, a relationship like this is very difficult & a huge commitment from both of you. You both have to be willing to make that commitment yourselves & to allow the other to make their own choice for themself (her included) & to respect that choice. It sounds like you both care about each other very much & I don't envy you your situation at all. But, as you will have seen, there is much support for you here, whatever choices you may make.
that's what i said. but she doesn't believe me.
i say that she can't hurt me because i know that if she gets mad i would know the cause.. and i know that love can beat anything.
i am very calm and strong and i allways listen to what she says, i just don't get it. she's only 15, she can't know anything.
she just doesn't wanna believe how strong i am.

If she has been living with this condition for a while then chances are that she knows more than you may be giving her credit for.
But as i said before. It is vital, for any relationship to work, that you each respect each other's choices. And if this is her choice... then you will need to respect it. To do anything else would only disempower her.
 
i am respecting it.
i allways have respected everything she does, i just want her to be happy.
