I really feel for you. I have suffered serious depression and anxiety and can understand some of your feelings. And the fact that you lost your son on Christmas Day is so very sad. No one expects you to "get over it," Carrie. You lost your son. You won't ever get over that. But there will, slowly, come a day when it's not quite so very painful.
I would like to echo Pat's recommendation for counseling. It will help you know that (a) there is NOTHING wrong with you, and (b) you are not alone.
Can you tell us a little more about your life, Carrie? Do you work? Do you have a close friend or two? How is your diet? Are you able to get any exercise on a regular basis?
