why i didn't cry when my mum died?

Answer 1

I didn't cry when my parents died either. It wasn't until many years later when I took my son of 4 to introduce him to my mom and dad at their grave site that I got weepy. I didn't feel the loss til then when I imagined myself without my beautiful son and how he never met his Grandparents and I wanted to tell them how I wish they were alive to meet him.

Answer 2

You may be morning and not ready to cry yet. I did not cry for a month when my dad died. I wanted to but when I did it came out and I was able to deal with issues of the morning a little better.
If it take too long to cry, seek help. You might have some deep reasons for not crying.

Answer 3

it could be that she is one of the people who has never really showed you sad emotion you might not have been exposed to hardships and things like that where people like your parents or other family members cry of sadness. When that happens you really dont know how to react it doesnt mean that you arent sad it just means that its not the world that you have been exposed to ...In time it will hit you and you may cry. Just dont keep your emotions bottled in cry if you need to. Im very sorry for your loss I hope this was helpful

I think sometimes when a loved one passes away you go through a surreal period. You go through the motions of everything that needs to get done to honor the dead and make the rest of the living feel better and cope. Someone once told me it felt like walking through jello. You are functioning on auto-pilot just to get through all the rituals of funerals, wakes..religious ceremonies and all the decisions you need to make in a very short amount of time to inter that person. You need to shut down some feelings in order to survive the ordeal.

In my case, losing someone hits you much later and in the strangest ways. You pick up the phone to call that person, to check in on them...only then you realize they're gone and they won't be picking up the phone. Or you might hear someone in a crowd that has a similar accent and it brings back a flood of memories. That's when you start to feel the hollowness and the loss and you allow yourself to begin to grieve.

I'm sorry for your loss

God has given you a reprieve.His careful guidance has given you strength to remain above this. Pray for knowledge and strength in the real test to come-for the choices you make -will define the true balance at stake. His next action is directly tied to His final judgement of you. Pursue His holy commandmants,to the T,as though your life depends upon it! This will give you room to explain and to plead. He has the capacity to forgive and forget. Hope is alive and ever present and is never dismissed.

Answer 6

One morning I came downstairs to our living room and found my mother lying face down on the carpet dead. She had been lying there all night and all the blood in her body pooled into the center of her body; it was really nasty looking.

I remember looking at her, and checking to see if she was dead and then called the hospital. I never shed a tear nor even thought about it until years later.

Why you didn't cry I don't know. Maybe you were in shock, or maybe you just really didn't love your mother. I didn't love mine at all so crying over her death was not in me.

Answer 7

Tears produced while weeping or crying are due to emotional stress. These tears are commonly associated with negative emotions like physical pain, depression, grief or being hurt. More details and information at http://eye-care.in/tears.html

Answer 8

This is not uncommon, it doesn't really hit people for quite sometime, sometimes it takes months sometimes people never cry sometimes people just never face it.
It probably hasn't properly hit you yet, it just isn't the time for you yet, itll come when its right.

Answer 9

some people have a hard time expressing emotion but it could be because it hasnt hit you yet. we you guys close? that could be why....you might be going through the stages of grief, the first being shock

Answer 10

Probably because you were still in denial or shock. The tears will come, it's not the same time for everybody.
