Hi Courtney!!
I hope you're having a dandy day!!!
[Or at least one that is 'dandier' than usual]
Good for you - I say. Most people - especially those who are dealing with depression - are not nearly so in tune to how their behavior might be effecting someone else. That tells ME that you are someone with a 'good character'. IF you want to really impress upon your counselor that your apology is sincere - nothing would prove that more than to see her in person. And I say that because IF you see her in person - it would tell her that she was worthy of not only your effort BUT ALSO of your TIME. Apologizing to someone in person is always far more impressive [And considerably more courageous] than apologizing to someone from the 'safety' of an email or letter. [But an email or letter apology is better than no apology at all]
What should you say?!
Apologies are best when they are short and sweet. AND to the point. Sometimes when a person apologizes - it starts off fine but soon turns into a 'feel sorry for me' speech. And that dilutes the apology. [Does that make sense?]
You could say something like this....
"I want you to know that I appreciate all of your help. And I hope that you will forgive me for finding it hard to make up my mind.
"
And that's all you need to say.
I hope that helps.
GREAT BIG HUG
Craig!!
