As I started to read the first post my reaction about your office move was "Great! She has been feeling isolated up on the third floor. Now she'll be where the people are, that should make things easier". Just my reaction. I think it will be a positive thing for you. If you are like me, when you sneak off to therapy or get something done late and your boss doesn't know, you feel guilty about it - and in my case that's probably worse than any reaction I would get out of my boss.
Reading your verbal exchange with your roommate, I'm not really seeing what she said that was wrong. She wasn't able to help you, but it looked like her questions were caring and reasonable. Her email was a bit much though.
Maybe you shouldn't see your roommate as your confidante or your cheering section. Maybe she is your "Let's watch a movie in our pajamas" friend, or your "I don't want to eat alone" friend.
Do something fun this weekend, even if you haven't finished your sociology.
