I've been in a long distance relationship with my girlfriend for 6 years (we're both 18 atm). I loved her to pieces at the very beginning, and my love has only grown as time progressed. Admittedly, there's been some bumps along the road, but I'd like to believe our relationship is steady and happy. However, we've taken a huge hit this year in the form of domestic issues on her side. Apologies if this seems nonsensical or poorly written, as it's quite late and the dilemma has kept me sleep deprived for a few weeks now.

Her parents are borderline abusive. Her father would demean her in every possible way he knew how to the brink of tears, take away her belongings and force her to work in his store for 9 hours every week day. On top of that, there would be violent arguments on a nightly basis between her mother and father, eventually dragging her into the mix. Before bed it became almost a nightly ritual for me to cheer her up before she slept, then check up in the middle of the night to ensure she'd fallen asleep. As a result of the bickering and constant blows to her self esteem, suicidal thoughts were constant and self harm wasn't rare. As our relationship continued her tendencies lessened, but it wasn't helped by her dad.

In March, he finally got kicked out by her mother, and things seemed to look up for us. However, things only took a nosedive from there. Her mom was even worse, berating her to worse levels, physically attacking her if she "got out of line", and is now meticulously trying to break us up. We went from daily chats to only week days, then down to Monday Wednesday and Thursday, and now only Thursdays.

My partner is almost always in a state of depression and it's become an uphill task to brighten her mood, usually taking most of the day, only to have her ripped from my arms the next morning. I beg of her to contact the authorities and just get this sorted out, but she downright refuses. Last week, we had the biggest argument of our relationship. The key points were as follows: I asked her to get help, she remained adamant in her refusal and said she's "too afraid of her mother getting arrested or committing suicide." I asked her what her solution to the issue was, and she said she simply wanted to wait and see how things turned out. She also said that she wasn't being beaten constantly, so there was no point. I desperately tried to hammer in the point that abusive relationships never get better, and the last year was a pristine example of that, but she ended the conversation with "All I want you to do is support me. I don't want to argue, please." 

I reluctantly agreed to support her, but still expressed my disapproval. Am I in the wrong for wanting to draw the line? I don't want to encourage her behavior with support, but I feel as though I'm the only person who would be willing to support anyway. I love her so much and I just want what's best for her, but it feels as though she can see the right way to go and is simply ignoring it to hurt herself.
