I hope you do not mind me answering you in English as I am using computer at the university. I just feel the urge to write you and encourage you to look at the brighter side as soon as possible.
Major correction is not the end of the world. The point you should not forget is you have PASSED your viva exam! If I were you, I would be crying too but with tears of joy. When you obtain your PhD, nobody will care to ask whether you have passed with or without correction. They will just celebrate the fact that you have worked so hard over the years and get this degree. True, passing without correction or with minor correction would make you feel better. But major correction still does not rob you of your success. I suppose it is more of a blow to one's ego than a true failure. So please pull yourself together and see the positive side. YOU HAVE PASSED YOUR VIVA!
I feel for you if you have put all your effort into writing and polishing your thesis, and you believe that you deserve a better result. It could be that the examiners were too tough on you, or it could be other factors beyond your control. Still, do not let it ruin your happiness and this time of celebration. At least the stress and anxiety before submission and viva exam is now behind you. You just have to focus on editing your thesis according to what the examiners have suggested. You probably can finish it within 2-3 months time if you really apply yourself.
Your PhD thesis is not a magnum opus. It is just a piece of work represents your research over the years. If there are some weaknesses, it does not mean you fail as a person. I have seen a few brilliant PhD students passing with major correction, and that does not stop them from being respectable as a scholar. Some of them even appreciate the experience because it made them a stronger and better people.
So please stop crying your heart out. I am also a research student and a struggling one. I have not even submitted my thesis and God knows when I can. So I would give anything I have to be in your shoes right now, because I really see your case as a success.
Keep smiling and be gentle with yourself. Many congratulations on passing your viva.
