Relationships

Long story (had to cut some key parts due to length restriction) but I really need help as I'm at my final tether, who's got the good advice?

I've been going slowly with a girl for close to 5 months now, from the start we both knew it would be difficult. She knew from the start my intentions and she shared them as well. She has past trauma and has been working on it but there are moments where it becomes to much

Everything was moving really well and I was sure it was about to hit the mark I was hoping for (Relationship). I've helped her through so much in life and she has helped me. I am 150% in love with her and don't want to lose her.

Nearly 2 months ago she was injured at work and has slowly been on a decline mentally and is in constant pain. I was pushing for something more during all this, really not a proud moment for me. She claimed that she doesn't want to talk about how she feels etc. She has now snapped at me and has been pushing me away.

We still message most days just basic stuff though, barely a conversation. Most recently I told her id fallen for her , which she claimed was frustrating as I knew she didn't have the mental energy to deal with stuff like that. I was aware but thought she would like to know due to some mental illness blogs I'd read online.

I don't want to leave, I want to be her rock through all this. But lately I am starting to think that its more than just being depressed. I am now starting to think that she wants me to leave. We even had a discussion back at the start that she would let me know if she no longer had feelings and would let me know its time to leave.

I believe that I have 3 options and can't decide between them

1. Walk away entirely
2. Tell her that is she wants me to stay we really need to talk about how to proceed as this is causing me mental anguish. (she will get stressed and frustrated as she doesn't want to discuss personal stuff)
3. Wait it out and suffer in silence till she returns to work (mid Jan maybe Feb.)

I am open to all opinions and if anyone has other options let me know. happy to give more details if anyone needs something in particular
