I don't know how you feel.
but putting it out there is brave & good.
Barge into your counselor's office. or at least call & leave her a message TODAY.

yes. please contact her today. i second this. don't put it off, and don't understate how bad you feel.

friend, this sounds like totally typical depression - there's nothing atypical about it at all, from my own experience (i'm not a professional obviously). it sounds very much like how i am when i'm depressed, including the obsessive thoughts about death despite having no actual *desire* to die. let your counselor know everything that's going on. if they're not providing adequate help,f ind a new one. you might want to consider medication at least on the short term if therapy isn't enough. there are lots of options for dealing with depression, from herbs to cognitive-behavioral therapy (which is short-term) to support groups to meds. you will get through this!

I'm so sorry to hear what you are going through -- definitely hit up that counselor! Also, to throw a crazy idea out there, the only thing that worked for my sister's depression (which often didn't seem typical to me) was acupuncture. In any case, you should know that you have a lot of people out there who want you to feel better!

I'm so sorry you're going through this, and I hope you called your counselor and you're on your way to feeling better. Know I'm thinking about you, ok?

*hugs*
