Is it normal not to cry or express emotion when it comes to death?

I wouldnt say its normal or not everyone is different and feels greif in their own way. Just go with how you feel and what your comfortable doing.

I cannot relate I cried for months when my cat died I still burst sometimes....

I agree with Louie that everyone deals with it in their own way. People jokingly call me emotionless because I don't show much positive or negative emotion. I typically stay composed during times when other people are angry, upset, or happy. Maybe it's just part of our personalities to respond that way.

Everyone deals with it in their own way, i too blank out after the fact, however i do it on purpose so i cant feel the pain as badly, but that doesnt seem to help much, plus i cant physically cry cuz my adams apple clogs my throat when im about to and then i cant breath

I know how it is, when people close to me die I don't cry....however if one of my pets die I cry and cry and cry!

i found out my gran just died a couple days ago and i was close to her but im not showing im sad nor do i feel sad about it i know i should be sad and she deserves for people to be showing grief or maybe feeling it but not showing it but even when im thinking this i dont feel sad for not feeling sad about her death its fucked up but still.

know how you feel. Kind of like you want to let go and cry and be upset because you feel that thats the 'normal' thing to do but just can't. Perhaps its just the way you are. I'm like that too.

It's normal, but it isn't healthy. Grief is difficult to deal with. Many of us choose to ignore it but it comes out one way or another. It often comes out in bitterness or anger. We place a high value on strength but then there's nowhere to turn when we're feeling pain.

I wasn't sad when my Granddad died. I hardly knew him so maybe that's why.
