Why can't I cry?

Bracken's gone. Got admitted to vets last night, been up all night, phonecall at 2am asking permission to let her go. I feel numb, sick, faint, empty but no tears. Is this normal?
 
I'm really sorry to hear that Amy :cry:

Yes, its totally normal to not cry. Everyone grieves in their own way. I for example didnt cry for 2 years after my Grandads death, then one day, completely random and out of the blue, i burst out in tears and cried for hours.

Big hugs and thoughts for you.

Binky free Bracken :(

I'm so sorry you have lost bracken :( How you are feeling is natural as for is it normal everyone is different this is normal for you you just need time
 
I am so very, very sorry. What a shock for you and given the timings it probably hasn't sunk in yet.:cry::cry:
 
I'm so sorry about Bracken. I've learnt that each grief is different and hits me in a different way. Just be kind with yourself and don't judge yourself for how you do or don't feel. Whatever you feel is ok.
 
I'm sorry :( I was the same as GrahamL though, didn't cry at all when my Grandad died, but at his funeral a week later I burst into tears and ended up making my cousin cry too, and he is a right tough nut.

I cried immediately when they said Hammy had to be pts but I blamed myself for not seeing it sooner :( cried for the next 2 days, but she wasn't in pain any more so I held onto that.

You will grieve in your own time xxxx
