Am I being gaslit or am I tripping?

I’m in love with my gf. But it feels like the longer we’re together the more I feel like I’m being gaslit or something. I go from being “the best thing” to the worst in one day. It confuses me and hurts the fuck out of my feelings. Not to make it seem like I’m stuck up, but I’m a good person and sometimes I feel like maybe that’s not the real me. I have ADHD so when I forget shit or fail at keeping up with my appearance or even have a hard time explaining things it irritates her. I want to cry because I feel like I’m spiraling back into depression and I’m just functioning and not truly living. I need help to build my self esteem back and to become me. I don’t know where to start or how to maintain myself. Thanks for listening.

@cleopatrapatra Hmm this sounds rough. I'm sorry. I think it is normal for a couple to sometimes get on each other's nerves or have pet peeves, but it depends on how she expresses that I guesss. If she is putting you down or saying mean things,or yelling that is not okay and you deserve someone better. If she is able to maybe take some time alone and cool down when feeling more irritated or explain more why she feels frustrated, that is a healthier type of way to deal with feeling irritated in a relationship.
