...I really could use some guidance and advice in this situation...

My suggestion is to spend a little time every day in meditation (maybe you do this already), and practice quietening the mind. Accept the thoughts that go racing across the mind but pay no attention to them. Allow your concentration to return to your breathing every time you notice it has wandered.

And when you are ready to end the meditation, spend a few moments considering the people near to you, the people you are involved with, and wish them good health and happiness. Don't think about how it feels, just be calm about it.

In this way you can work on yourself, to reduce the stress that the situation creates within you. You can't change other people, but you can change yourself.

Your counselor seems to be a good support to you at this time.
