Missing Mum

My mum passed at the start of July and I have just felt numb since, today is her birthday and I expected to feel some kind of emotion but so far nothing. Is there something wrong with me that I can not express any feelings or shed any tears? My own health conditions make me housebound and I live alone, should i not have more reason to fall apart with no one to judge? Spend most of my time worrying about my dad but I don’t feel like I can let him know how im feeling, we have never been the type of family that shares emotions. Sorry for the rant, it’s good to be able to express my feelings :slightly_smiling_face:

Nothing is wrong with you and expressing your emotions here and that is fine. The waves of grief may never hit you but (unless you were acrimonious) keeping her alive in your memory is honouring her. Maybe try and do something you’d both typically do today as a ‘raise a glass moment’ but if not, don’t worry.
