Wow did your words ever hit home. I, too, can be particularly vicious to the person I care about the most- my husband. I don't remember a lot of what I say either, and I read your GF's tone as more defensive than angry when accusing you of being 'crazy'. I promise you she is afraid of her outbursts (those remembered or not) because it means her core personality isn't in control. I think your call was appropriate, and if you want to leave one more message that you love her and are here for her that can't hurt either. I feel so badly for you- have you considered counseling to help you deal with her? Especially if you are as committed as your posts show. As I mentioned before holidays are particularly difficult for not just people with DD but also those with affective disorders. Maybe in the next week or so you will see a return to 'normal'. Just one more note, she has been betrayed by the men she most cared about in her life, so the trust and love she feels/will feel for you comes slowly and at a price of facing old demons. (been there). Take care of yourself and your daughter, I think you are a wonderful person- judy
