Remind her you love her very much, keep saying it.
Hug her often.

Please just remember, depression isn't just a form a sadness it is a real chemical disorder in your brain.
Too little or too much of any brain chemical

1. alters our behavior
2. takes away our happiness
3. creates a different personality
4. changes our destiny.

This is what depression does to you, and you cannot control it on your own.
Seek some pills, or a therapist for her.

And tell her I Love You often, and mean it!
She needs it right now. She just needs some comforting and reassurance.

Since your the boyfriend in my opinion, it's your responsibility to do your best to give her the best life possible. Even if you don't like her at least stay with her until she's not suicidal anymore cause breaking up could kill her. Be with her as much as possible and talk to her. Do everything you can. And most importantly, make sure she sees a doctor!!!!! They can do allot for her. Maybe even get her to inpatient! I've been there and it was such a .... miracle? (im an atheist so i feel weird using that word) anyway it's an experience that she may very well need.

EDIT: try crying in front of her about it. (if you haven't already) she needs to know she has people to live for and people living for her.

Additional Details would be important most definitly, whats her situation..? Cant answer it twice, i would just say that its definitly a long-term solution to a short term problem in any case, and that if she just realizes that and the EVERYTHING shes doing is so enormousley f-ed. So many things could make her life better, just connecting with people more, gifts she has to offer, things in life that would make her feel better for example i dunno what if one day she got a rewarding feeling from helping somebody with something big. Like i said i dont know her situation, she could have ptsd who knows, if you explain i can further my answer..

I would do everything I can to find out why she thinks like that to understand it better when I would try to make her as happy as I could

Send her to counseling. Ask why shes doing that. Tell her how much u love her.
