My mother died on June 30th after a long and painful battle with cancer. I took care of her all by myself. I’m extremely upset and sad but I’m unable to cry… it’s not that I don’t want to, just nothing happens. Is being this numb common?

    I went through the same thing. Once life "settled down", I nearly had a nervous breakdown because I finally had to deal with it. Make sure you have someone you can tell if you start to have a rougher time or if whatever things working to help you go bad. Know you're not alone and a real man can and will admit when they don't have a complete grasp on things. It never gets better, but you should learn the techniques to make it easier for you.
