My Mom Died, I’m 21, I Don’t Know How to Feel. Please Read.?

Question by Sabrina: My mom died, I’m 21, I don’t know how to feel. please read.?
I’m 21, and my Mom died 3 weeks ago, (Nov 4th, 2013) from brain cancer. Glioblastoma. She battled this cancer for almost 2 years. She was diagnosed suddenly, and become sick and died just as suddenly. I have definitely cried. Mostly when I drink or talk to someone I’m not close with about it. But when it comes to my family or friends or others, I don’t feel anything. When I’m alone, I don’t really feel anything. I feel like I should be laid out distraught, but I’m not. And that is not to say that I am not heartbroken, because I definitely am. I guess I’m just wondering if this is normal? And can I expect a wave of emotions to hit me? I’ve always had to be strong, my whole life, so I feel like maybe I’m not dealing with it like I should, because I’m trying to be strong. I’m not sure what to do. And I could really use some advice. Thanks in advance.
