URRRRGH VALIDATE MY FRAGILE PSYCHE EVERYONE FEED MY NARCISSISTIC BEHAVIOUR
Eris:
have you tried talking to someone closer than the uni counsellors? There was a time when I felt like I should talk to someone and had that same feelings of embarrassment and failure that it seems you are, and talking to a friend was much less scary than talking to the actual psychological dude. I went and saw a guy a few times but each time I felt stupid and hated the whole process so I would put off going and seeing him again until I just stopped. A friend might make you feel more comfortable.
Or you can go into more detail about the situation here, and we can try and help?
Tom:
I'm actually not close to/with anyone who I'd feel comfortable talking to about anything other than casual conversation. I'm not going to talk to any family members because they share almost everything and I know from personal experience that I will only further depress the hell out of mum who will feel like she's failed even further because the one son who she constantly says is the best most helpful and understanding (her words, like constantly) is somehow defective and not at all what she wants or hoped for. This is the woman who said that "she was not calling me a deviant" for looking at gay porn, yea you can imagine.

The services are there for you - problems can be real even if they don't involve killing yourself! Although making that first approach can be really, really hard, you may well find that simply having made the first step will help a bit.
