Please share your feelings with your doctor and ask for a referral to see a therapist, therapy would really help.
I did get some counselling yes, but I didn't find it to be useful. I found the counselor to be extremely patronizing, and I just generally disliked her. I found that I had 'recovered' from the bereavement after a few weeks. However, perhaps it just shows itself in other ways, like this for example.

I am currently receiving CBT, but I haven't mentioned this issue yet, I probably might bring it up at some point.
