You know what really makes me sad? I have no doubt that all of the concerns you mentioned that were external to yourself (and, I suspect, many of the factors that led to your PTSD and your battle with chronic severe depression) were likely orchestrated to achieve this very result.

If there's one thing an authoritarian state doesn't like, it's strong family units. They hate them even more than religious orders, because you can always destroy a church, but it takes a real feat to destroy the bonds of family.

I'm not judging you for your choice, only pointing out that the factors driving your choice are, in my opinion, directly intended to push you and others to making the same decision not to have a family.
