My problem is that it really depresses me to the point where I'm upset regularly at the thought that I won't see my loved ones again.
Its really affecting me now I have a one year old child who I love more than I ever thought possible to love another person. It makes me genuinely depressed to think I will die and so will he and I will never "see" him again. How do I stop feeling so sad by this?
Have you considered seeing a therapist? Everyone copes with subjects like this in their own way, and sometimes it can be more than we are equipped to deal with. Sometimes we need a little help - and as another poster said, you may be dealing with some post-partum depression.
I've had to face issues dealing with my own mortality over the past 18 months, and I know it's not easy, but it can be done.
