You should focus on the fact that your son needs you. Something that helps me is that taking your life ends the chance of things ever getting better. Perhaps you should seek some professional help.
Bhub - it will get better. The emotions and anxiety you are feeling right now are temporary. Your son would be devastated if you killed yourself. It would haunt him for the rest of his life. Please think about him - he needs you and loves you. I know you are hurting right now, but that pain will diminish and eventually go away. I know you are also overwhelmed - try not to stress about things you cannot control. Take things one at a time. Try to distract yourself with friends, family, or a hobby. Please see a doctor as they can also help you tremendously. I am so sorry that you are going through this! It really will get better!

OP, I'm sure we'd all love an update. I see your original post was your first post ever.
Is there any substance (ab)use involved in this?
The most important thing to remember is your son. If you kill yourself, you're basically going to destroy him as well. I've been semi-suicidal for years and even if I decide to go through with it, I still can't, because my parents are alive. I can't do that to them. Suicide is not an option for me because of that.
In the same vein, suicide is not an option for you as long as your son is alive.
Keep reaching out to us for support. And there is a wealth of suicide support within reach as well. If it's that bad, please reach out to dedicated suicide/crisis workers in addition to your friends here at BL.
