Am I going through PTSD

My father has died in road accident with a motorcycle. He was the umbrella of my family. Everything was great with him. But, as he died life has become so difficult to cope up.

In addition, my mother got married 2nd time. It is also very difficult to accept as our conservative society does not accept this. Same goes for my family in laws. My spouse's family did not accept this marriage and I can see the impact on my relationship with my spouse.

I have one child of 1.5 years and my wife is pregnant with 3 months running. I was not ready to take care for two babies as I am not financially good.

Due the trauma of death of my father, I could not do well in my career. I can't focus on studying for my M.Sc project/thesis.

Now, I am experiencing high stress, low self-esteem, low energy. Is this PTSD?

What should I do to overcome this?
