Death

My mum has sadly died. I've not experienced death before so I'm not really understanding what's happening. I feel bad because I don't feel sad, I don't feel anything. Is that normal? She was my mum and I loved her but I'm not feeling anything since she went.

I'm worried about how I'm going to continue on without mum. She did everything for me despite the fact I'm in my 20s. I can't communicate very well. I don't know how to do money, no job, can't cook, can't drive. I don't know what I'm going to do now. I'm all on my own and I'm scared.

  • So sorry for your loss Snowflake.  I didn't know what to feel when my mum died and I am VERY emotional normally.    Having ASD often means having a very difficult relationship with our emotions so I would say yes it is normal to not feel anything.

    As Ninjamelody says, take it slowly, process and deal with the problems one at a time.
