    i think that so much has happened that your mind is more focused on getting through whatever the next stage is a keep on moving on. but i do strongly believe that in sometime from now when you have to stop reacting from a traumatic situation to another traumatic situation and your brain actually digests the information of whats happening then you will have an emotional reaction a rather strong one. I hope you have friends that can support you through this difficult time. i am very sorry for all your losses.

    Sounds like you've shut down emotionally cuz the pain of it all is just too much for you to deal with. I think you unconsciously push the feelings down cuz you're afraid to feel the pain and deal with it. You ae human though, you can't ignore these things forever. They will definitely cause upheaval in your life if not dealt with. Talk with a counselor or trusted friend. Just venting alone will help you.

    Well you COULD just be like me then, emotionally dead / detached.
    I don't find it all that uncommon. But I find it to be very common these days because this is the generation of "me me me" and "I" hence no one cares about others anymore.
