Delayed Reaction

Is it possible to have a delayed reaction to losing a younger sibling?
It has been over a year since my little sister suddenly passed away and now over the past few days I have felt really down and emotional and even having the horrid memories of when she passed in my mind before going to sleep on a night.
I don’t really know if this is me finally realising that she has gone

Hello Buttercup1

I’m so sorry for the loss of your sister. Thank you for sharing this with us. I’m just giving your thread a gentle, “bump” for you - hopefully someone will have some thoughts to share.

Take good care, Rhi

I’m sorry for your loss. I think delayed reactions to grief are common. We can push things into our subconscious because they’re too painful to deal with. I hope you find some comfort for your loss. Dealing w/ grief is as individual as people are.
