Okay, this is serious.
Firstly, no matter what, you have to tell her parents what is going on. They are legally responsible for her and can get her actual help.
Secondly, until her parents know of this, DO NOT BREAK UP WITH HER. Have lots of fun with her, and show her the joys in life that are not worth losing.
Most importantly, talk to her and show you care! It s scientifically proven that the part of our brain which considers consequence is not fully developed until we are 22 years old. That's why teenagers do stupid things like commit suicide.
Do not take this lightly, my close friend who was 15 just committed suicide because her boyfriend broke up with her. I do not want others to feel the pain associated with loss.
She might hate you at first, but she will thank you eventually, because you may have saved her life.

im so scared to do anything though. her mum is a total psychopath (her parents split btw) and treats her really badly. i dont want her mum to lock her somewhere up where she'll be even more miserable.
and its hard to brake up with her cus i do have feelings for her and care about her but i dont feel right being with her anymore, it's not what a relationship should be.
i just wish i could talk her out of it somehow, i feel like complete shit about everything. i want to leave her so i can be happy again but i feel shit about leaving her. its not fair that i have to feel bad about wanting to be happy.

If you feel you cant talk to her mom is there anyway you can talk to her father(depending on their relationship of course) like getting his number out of her phone when shes not looking,
you will have to tell her parent(s) or another relative of hers that you know she is close to.
I honestly dont know what yoour goiing through but its not fair that this is being put on you. you do need to address it just make sure there is a support system for her parents or relatives that know she is a bit unstable

Ive had allmost the exact same problem, suicidal gf and couldnt dump her, it was easier tho, for me i told the school, they took it very seriously and afterwords she wasnt mad at me, but not thankful, but its better then her killing herself

Talk to a school counselor, they'll be able to help you through the situation. Your gf may end up being taken to a hospital or something to keep her safe until she seems more stable, but it isn't like she will be put in a straight jacket, their goal is to help her deal with her problems. Whether she goes anywhere or not, she should definitely start seeing a therapist, but first there is probably a counselor or someone she can talk to with your help.
I've had issues with suicide and my school had both a psychologist and therapist to help me, they brought my parents in (my choice) and explained that I was suicidal. After getting that far though, I talked them out of taking me anywhere and became less honest to everyone and started acting extremely reckless, eventually leading to a meth addiction and blah blah. Anyway, you can't believe them or really guarantee their safety, but there are measures that can be taken to help lower the risk.

That's called a dependency, something only a psychiatrist should deal with, not you. There's no need to carry that guilt burden, it's not a relationship, it's abusive. Get out of it and if you must, notify the proper authorities of what she has threatened to do.
