I'm grieving for losing my mom. But sometimes I feel like I have no emotions. Is that wrong?

Hello my dear @A MyDepressionTeam Member and I share with you somewhat your story. My problem was dying from a brain tumor and it look like we lost all his friends and some family. I was mad during that time. Many years later I had to pray to God and ask for forgiveness. Everyone can not deal with death and dying.

My mom and dad died 8 days apart in 1988 and my birthday was in between them dying. I didn't cry I didn't really feel anything. You know that is a part of life in my eyes. We're all are born we all live a life of some kind and then we die. So I would respond to school and I took care of everything and never one time did I shed a tear. It was what it was. What are you do I mean death happens in I guess I know really cuz I don't have emotions about people dying. I'm like didn't even go to any other services. I believe it was best for me stay away I needed to say goodbye in my own way of my own time. And I know I would see people that would take things like oh I'm so sorry your parents were so special we loved them we will miss them. And then knowing me I would say if you cared so much then where the hell
were you the past 20 years. When did you freaking talk again or see them or have anything to do with them and you're going to sit here and tell me that you love them and you're gonna miss them go to hell dream that's what would have happened. So out of respect I decided it was best to not go. I'm sure if I did go it'd be a lot of mad people. But what but why when I just spoke the truth. They can't deny that. So I stayed away

Yes and no if it continues then try to talk to ur therapist about it also I get cuz thts how I felt when my mom passed away from cancer and excuse my French the fucked up part about it my family and I dk I thought it was a cyst that needed to be drained. I didn't realize at the time that it was that and when we realize what it was it was too late to do anything but help her with pain management. And when she passed I couldn't go to sleep for 2 days almost So I do feel you and I am so sorry about your brother. Condolences to your family. Keep your head up and hang in there

I grieved my husband for 2 years- he’s been gone for 4 years. His death is a part of me which will never go away. I haven’t cried about him for the last 2 years. As time passes it gets easier
