I am sorry you are feeling so bad. Continue with your Counselor. Losing family and friends for whatever reason is indeed difficult. You begin to feel like an orphan.
Hopefully you can take little baby steps and get out a little more. Your counselor might also have a support group going, or know of one. It can be rather easy to make a friend or two in the support group.
Yes, when we are depressed our brain definately does not work right, and even a little decision can be hard to make. If you have a hobby, or know of a book group you might want to get involved with people that have similar issues. A book group at the library can also be a great way to meet people, and not feel threatened.

Hoping you feel better!
