well hunny your on the right path talking to a councellor, nobody should ever feel ashamed to talk to some one about there mental health, its so common these days to go in to a depression more people need to seek help before it is to late.
For now i think it would be best for you if you concentrated on your own life for a moment, concentrate on getting yourself better and being happy independant. Dont contact your ex for now just try and sort out your own life at the moment, but darling for now you need to accept that it is over, because if you keep hanging on to hope then you will never move on, so you need to accept for the time being that you are single and built a life for yourself, a happy one.
