  Sorry to hear about your loss. I didn't cry when my mother passed away, but we were enstranged at the time. She suffered from mental illness and I was happy that she was no longer unhappy.

  Your emotions and tears at the dr. office were normal. I'm glad you didn' t end up in a psyche ward for being human and crying. It sounds like you kept alot in and your response was within the realm of normal. The same thing would happen if a garden hose that's running was kept against the ground. The water will only remain contained so long and then it squirts out all over. On the other hand if it is allowed to flow out without restraint it's manageable.

  After trying to stuff emotions for so long it can be hard to identify or name what you are feeling. Are you happy, sad, angry, frustrated, confused? Every emotion is normal, it's what we do with them that can be unhealthy. Try to put words to what your going through and find a trusted confidant to talk to. Take Care.

  I do understand how you are feeling and I am truly sorry for your sad loss.

  My mum died when I was a young teenager and I didn't grieve. just repressed my sadness for much too long.I

  It is such a big loss in our lives to lose a parent, but try to cherish the loving memories you have of her.

  Dear MsMcDucket,

  I know your pain [but won't discuss mine now] and wish you the means to deal with it. We eventually come to terms with personal loss. A combination of factors come into play and effect healing. We have no foreknowledge of these factors, much less control over them when they occur. They are often gradual, imperceptible to us.

  Looking back over the last several years, I now understand what events - and the people in them - helped me. There was no way I could have brought all these good forces together to my benefit. I am different today from the person I was even a year ago. For the better.

  I wish you good things and love on your journey through the day and the rest of your life,

  I am so sorry for your loss too. I lost my mom 37 years ago (too early at 43 yrs old due to cancer) and I still weep at times and have often felt 'robbed'. I have chosen to hope she's been in better place all this time (tho her manipulated hope was 'earthly'). All of her 5 children have since left the WTS as the words of 'soon' and many other issues became very empty and unreality. But, we, her children have gone on, as we must, there for each other as we are all a piece of her. Please take care of yourself and allow your sorrow.

  I think you have been a pretty strong person to be here and give the support that you are able to.

  I lost one of my sons to death in 2001 he was 15 years old. I lost both my parents when they died of old age. I lost my sister to a long time illness at the age of 65. Death is part of life is what I've learned. Our emotional response is normal no matter when it comes.

  When Dak died I cried when I was alone after a few weeks, it was so devastating to our family yet none of us could deal with each others pain. I knew others kept looking at me wondering how I was doing. I was doing terrible and there was no help for it except to get through it. It's been 6 years now and looking back I understand how bad that 1st year was. I've experienced the death of my loved ones a lot, and I can only assure you will one day you realize your feeling better. You put pictures up and when you think of them you find you smile with wonderful memories they left you. I still miss my folks they were awesome parents, always kind and caring even when I was less than appreciative. My sister and I were close though we lived 3000 miles apart when I was grown. My son well he was like most teens, irritating, fun, and incredibly smart and intuitive about people. My youngest son reminds me of him sometimes in his expressions, and it makes me smile.

  I wish you healing and knowing that as we live we also die and I believe that life continues on when the flesh fail or is destroyed. It helps me cope and gives me hope though I don't embrace the traditional Christian path now.

  I am so sorry that you lost your mother.

  Emotions are a funny thing. I hadn't cried for months; not even after I was sexually assualted back in July. But then I was at a PT appt a few weeks ago. I was laying on the massage table and my therapist hit a spot on my neck and I burst into tears like a 2 year old who had a toy taken away. I couldn't stop crying and he had to stop the massage for a good 15 minutes so that I could get my composure. I don't know what brought it on and even though I've been through another traumatic experience since, I haven't cried again. I guess my body just had enough and released my hurt and anger from this summer all at the same time.

  I hope you are feeling better.
