I recently attended the funeral of my best friend of 12 years. I laughed hysterically the entire time. It wasn't a delayed reaction or anything, I actually think it's funny. I can't make myself care. I told her mom she looked like an idiot when they buried her. They had her dressed up in a brown dress that looked like a potato sack. Is there something wrong with me? Why can't I care.

If this is an isolated event, it probably reflects that you're not ready to deal with emotions that come with mortality.
If this isn't an isolated, one-time event...if you're always like this, You probably have "antisocial personality disorder" and need to learn how to deal with social situations appropriately, even though you don't feel emotions as deeply as the rest of the people around you.
Don't go on drugs for it unless you want to, but you should find a therapist to talk with, otherwise it could make your life difficult.
There are a lot of people who have ASPD and a good number of them end up in jail, because they couldn't learn to at least behave as though they cared.
If you can't get therapy, read a good number of books on the topic.

I think you had a case of grief hysteria.Sometimes when we are really stressed out we will laugh instead of cry. Have you ever laughed until you cryed? I have. Its a form of release. I really can't imagine that if this was your best friend, you would really think any part of her burial service was funny. You loved her, and now she is gone. It is going to hurt. You are just trying to protect yourself from the inevidable. Go have yourself a good cry. Then Tell your friends mom you are sorry for your harsh words.

Because something is seriously off or not connecting in your brain. Ok, that was harsh of me. Maybe your mind isn't ready to accept your BF death. I think at a minimum, you should contact a therapist and get in for a few sessions asap. Because if it is just a form of unconcious denial, when your BF's passing hits you, it's going to hit hard.
Good luck, and sorry to be ugly at first.

Wow... If this really happened I would say it is pretty sad... I hope when you pass away no one is that rude to your loved ones!!
Everyone deals with death differently and I have no issues with that. I do however have issues with someone that has no respect for the deceased ones family that is grieving deeply for their loss. To have someone at that time be so mean spirited is just a terrible!! Shame on you!! 50 lashings for you!!

Sounds to me like you just got enlightenment. We all die, your turn will come sooner than you thought. Live it while you can.
I know some combat vets that sort of had this (somewhat rare) reaction. It's kind of like survivor guilt, combined with realizing your precarious situation, all at once. I think it is called Adjustment Disorder, but I am no psychologist.

YES YOU HAVE A PROBLEM. If you didn't cry that is understandable. The fact that you laughed is horrible. Then you went and made a comment to her mom. YOU NEED HELP!!!
Maybe if you come around someday or if you get meds then you could apologize to her family.

I don't know, you figure it out. she's your friend and that's your friend's mom. It's up to you how you want to act in that situation, though I can't t blame them if everyone else in her family would think you were a bit nuts...I said a bit, but who knows, I don't even know their family. For all I know, they wouldn't care if you laughed in a funeral, though it's kinda disrespectful to her family don't you think?

dude, i don't think you are crazy. it's just your way of expressing your sadness for her. Obviously, you knew what she likes and what she doesn't like, that shows you care about her. And I think too that she would disagree on the choice of dress she had been buried in.

you can't care because something is obviously wrong in your life that you feed yourself lies. you don't care because you never really cared for this person. I don't know why you called her your best friend because it is evident that she was not. i hope you figure out what is wrong in your life so that you can get some serious help. good luck in your life and you better be careful cuz karma is real.

I'm glad I'm smart enough to know this is a fake question, because there is nobody that's honestly an inconsiderate piece of **** like that
