Dear Gill,
Welcome to the site. I do not know how you feel, but might be able to offer some helpful advice. Firstly, it is important that you let your family doctor know how you are feeling. Perhaps he/she can offer you help that is more suitable for you, as you said the counsellor is not helping. It sounds like you enjoy spending time with yourself, which is perfecly acceptable, so maybe try and go out to do things on your own, things you enjoy. Let us know how you are doing, there are resources out there to help you. Let me know how you are doing and keep the postings coming.
Susanne
