Think my DS has some anger issues towards me

I think my PND has caused some anger and behavioural issues towards me. He basically doesn't like me much. I am clueless as how to discipline him properly. Also my depression leaves me with very little energy and enthusiasm for anything much. As a result he has been bought up on too much TV. He is behind at school and I find it difficult to get him to do his homework etc. He is nearly 7.
I guess he is naturally a strong personality and I guess would be a bit of a hand full any way.
He has no real problems at school just at home.
I feel he needs more stimulation than I can give him. I am very poor at making friends and don't chat to the other mums at school. This results in him not seeing many children outside of school.
I feel like a failure and am not sure how to go about putting things right. He is a fab little boy and deserves better.

There are some pluses here, so dont be too hard on yourself.
"He has no real problems at school". That is good. Very good.

Does he do after school clubs? Or go to Beavers or whatever else a 7 year old goes to nowadays?

yes I try and get him involved in a few clubs etc where he can see his friends

Are there any children locally who he can play with?
As he gets older, and becomes more self sufficient, all this will become much less of a problem.
