I'll give her space and then she gets mad at me for not talking to her. Then I'll be there to support her and she looks at me as if she wants nothing to do with me. I love her very much and was planning on marrying her but now I'm so confused I can't even see straight. I just don't know what to so anymore. I don't want to leave her so what do I do?

Sorry to hear that your girlfriend is going through a rough time. What is the cause of her depression? Do you know?
If you don't want to leave her - try to be as supportive as you can. I know your trying as hard as you can, just keep doing what you are doing.
This matter seems like it is almost out of your hands - is she seeking any other help? (ie, counselor) If not, I would suggest that she would do so.
It's not that you aren't doing a good job at being a good boyfriend - it's just that, you cannot control everything and that she may need to get help from a professional. She also may need to be prescribed anti-depressants.
Hopefully your girlfriend can get over this rough patch, and move on and continue a long and happy life.
Just remind her that you love her lots, and you will always stick by her and be her cushion whenever she needs it.
Take care
