I hadn't heard of Lunarbaboon until you just mentioned it, but I googled it and saw a few strips. It brought a smile to my face! So life-affirming and sweet, especially the ones that touch on depression. It sounds like you're doing the absolute best you can for your son, and that's all anyone can ask of a parent. It's possible your son will have his own mental health struggles at some point, but that's not knowable or adressable right now. The best thing you can do is be there for/with him and make the most of his childhood, which although I'm not a parent myself I understand goes by in the blink of an eye.
I've had conversations with my own father as an adult where he expressed to me similar concerns about not being good enough, about passing on his own mental health issues, and so on. I truly didn't know he felt that way, and it was so freeing to tell him that I felt his fears were unfounded. Depending on his age, it may be many years before your son is able to appreciate that when he was a kid you were a person with your own mistakes and struggles as well. It's certainly something I've come to understand my own parents as a young adult and it's made me more grateful that despite everything they were still able to be there for me, as it sounds like you are for your son.
