You're normal.
Some people are that way.
You had these emotions. But you just didn't physically show them.
I know exactly how you feel.
Losing someone is always hard and has a long lasting impact.
You may not think it.
But it's true.
For everyone.

BUT.
If you were glad, I'd question your normality. :P

I'm sorry for your loss.
I hope you feel better.

my grandmother died a few years ago and she was like a second mother to me (i know its not the same as your real mother) anyways i didnt cry at all and part of the reason i learned later was just shock. i was kind of in my own world that day. i still feel terrible about not crying but dont think its because you didnt love your mother.

Yes you are normal. Some people just don't show emotion. When my grandpa died, on August 31, 2005, I didn't cry or anything either. But now when I think back, I do get emotional. Some people just aren't as emotional as others.

Your normal. Sometimes when you lose someone, especially if its sudden you go into a state where you show no emotion at all. its just because youve got so much emotions going on inside theres no way to get it out.

some people(like you and me) dont cry during grief. its normal and lots of people do it.

I have that problem too, sometimes I want to cry, but I can't! It's frustrating, but don't worry it's normal.
By the way, my condolences...

Sometimes the crying catches up with you later on, when you're not expecting it. If it does, don't hold it back, let it all out. If it doesn't don't worry, it doesn't mean you dont care.

I had a very hard time when my favorite grandfather died 8days before my thirteenth birthday. I took it the hardest out of everybody. I no longer celebrate my birthday, and I still cry even though it's 3 years later.
It does get easier, though. I can promise you that.
Just lock yourself in a bathroom and bawl your eyes out if you need to.

I'm here for you <3

when my cousin died two years ago i dont cry i was acting like everything was normal althought i feel sad ,some people do that is a way to repress emotions that are difficult to process because we can deal whit them but that is nomal .you would deal with your emotins in a slower way you maybe cry but with the time when you can accept what happen and your emotions even if you dont cry you are totally normal.

by the way sorry for your lost.

As other people have said, you are normal, and there's nothing wrong with not crying. For instance, when my mom died, I only cried a bit on the day and haven't cried about it since, and that was nearly two years ago.

You say that you are in depression, maybe it would be best to get grief counseling or something like that.

it's normal i can cry of happiness but not grief and only certian hapiness like feeling like i can get away from depresion i cry about that but nothing else its hard
