AITA For feeling abandoned in my relationship and vocalizing it?

Me (20m) and my girlfriend (21F) have been together about 2 months now. As my first REAL girlfriend Its been quite an experience.

We both have mental illness, I have mild schizophrenia and shes one step below that. We are fairly in control and it doesn't get in the way, we are supportive of eachother.

Her living situation has always sucked. She's been homeless, disowned, in countless mental facilities, abusive family, you name it. She's on an upswing desperate for a job applying at call centers. She drinks about once a week, and she calls me to rant and let off steam, and she gets MEAN when shes drunk.

She tries to avoid liquor she cant handle to avoid this, but even last night she just drank BEER and she still went off. It makes me horribly anxious, but I know she doesn't really mean it and that its more her letting out her anger, so I listen to it. I dont take it personally.

She was the one to get me to open up emotionally. No matter how bad it got, she promised she would never leave me. We both wanted to live happy lives and get married someday. Ive always been in a shell and she convinced me to invest and open up to her. Shes my everything at this point.

She has a long time best friend in connecticut. She's been pondering moving there for quite some time as he offered her a space at her place. And her house is full of bugs, nasty evil people you name it. I can understand wanting to leave.

But last night, in that rant, I just said "Im overloaded with this right now, Im gonna go to bed and we can talk about it more tomorrow." Three hours later I get a bunch of missed calls (phone off) and she tells me that shes moving to Connecticut and its over.

AITA For feeling abandoned and telling her this? She insists that because shes looking out for herself its fine, (which it is to an extent, always look out for number one), but she had me open up and be partially dependent emotionally on someone else for once in my life, and after promising many many times she will never leave, she just dips at the drop of the hat?
