Yeah, I can definitely relate, although I do have other problems, and depression has been something I've struggled with almost all my life. I relate to feeling like you're going nowhere, to feeling alone, and at 27, I've been in only 2 serious relationships - I've been single for about 4 years, I think. So, yeah, ... that's about all I can offer. You've made the right choice in deciding to see a counselor. I think you do need the support. Let us know how it goes.

Oh, and welcome to PC!
