Hi and welcome.
I'm of the opinion that depressed people can't help being sad, I'm glad that you're seeing someone about it, because if you're depressed, it's a medical condition and there are attempts you can make to get better. Perhaps get a second opinion if the help you're currently getting isn't helping. I am not belittling your feelings, they're every bit as real as anyone's. Just ... I've known some depressed people who feel perhaps it's their fault for not being able to be happy like everyone wants them to.
As for god and afterlife and all that. Wellllll ... if you read the bible closely enough, it's almost impossible to go to heaven. So there is an afterlife and its hell. Either way, when you're dead you won't have a brain to feel fear. So don't worry.
Anyway, hopefully you'll like this forum and stick around.
