My [24 M] gf [22F] is bipolar and in the middle of a manic episode. How do I tell her that I don't want her going out and partying with a group of guys she doesn't know well?

We've been dating for about 6 months, but have a history (were together for 2.5 years in high school). She developed bi polar after we broke up so it's all new to me.

She has type 1 so her manic episodes get very bad. She is currently not receiving treatment due to some complicated issues (she said she doesn't want to be on medication, and she wants to wait until she moves back to school in a few months).

She said last week she went out with friends and blacked out after only a few drinks. She also said that she has a lot of trouble controlling her drinking, even when she's not manic.

Even more, she told me when we first got together that she cheated on a previous boyfriend after a year, who she really loved, because she was manic, and she said she was going to work hard on fixing herself over the next year (which hasn't happened at all because of the things I mentioned above). She has said multiple times that when she's like this, she makes bad, impulsive decisions and doesn't think at all about consequences.

She gets extremely upset when I bring up the idea that all of this scares me (happened once before), so I'm not really sure how to approach thetopic.

She said she was invited by someone she doesn't know well to go out with his friend group and party in a city 30 minutes away. I am in no way comfortable with that.

Tl;dr: how can I tell her that this makes me uncomfortable in a way she'll understand without seeming like I'm throwing all of her past mistakes at her?
