I am sorry you are feeling so badly. You are young at 61, so there is time to turn things around. Try to find a therapist and take anti depressants if you are not already doing so. Your children cannot really help you with anxiety and depression as they do not understand and do not know how to deal with it. It would be much more helpful to work through those feelings with a therapist and then be able to enjoy your children and grandchildren by talking about other things.

Also, did anything happen to you that brought on these bad feelings? (You don't have to answer if you don't want to).

Not what you're looking for?
