I have been through tragedy several.times through my life. Every time I was sad but then I bounced back. This time... both my grandmother and my dog died within days of eachother, then I had to watch my dad break down and cry. Bit weirdly I couldn't feel sad. Not couldn't cry, couldn't feel sad. Its weird, because I haven't since then. Am I broken?

I've always been down then back up. But ever since that happened (a whole year and half ago) I haven't felt sad even once. Even on the day it happened I knew I should've been sad, but I wasn't. I wanted to be sad, I loved the dog my grandmother and watching the man who I grew up believing to be superman cry was hard.

Even I as a sometimes overly emotional person at times. Has had long stretches of having zero sad emotions or even crying. Even over a death of someone I cherished more than myself. I was "blank" about it for a long time.
We all handle things differently, your normal reactions will change. Has nothing to do with say the topic it just happens.
But yeah if you are very concerned it may help to
speak to someone. Quack or not.

Good luck creepy dude

I don't think you're broken. There's nothing wrong with how you're dealing with it. Perhaps you've just become numb to things? As long as you are able to get through things and do things normally, I don't think there is anything wrong with you. In fact, you're showing your resiliency through not breaking down; what's the issue with that? Just continue being strong, buddy!
