Answer:
No– grief is hard. I've lost losts of people in my life, some who were closer to me than others, but they were all a sad time. If you need to cry, then cry.

Answer:
not at all! you are probably in shock which is why your thought are all over the place. there is no exact way in which you are meant to deal with this. if you feel like crying then cry since i know from the experience of one of my uncles dying bottling it up will lead to sooooooo much worse things so let it out now!!!

Answer:
no, you are just grieving. sometimes you don't think you are close to the person, but they actually do mean a lot to you. i didn't realize my favorite uncle was my favorite uncle until he passed. he annoyed me by picking on me, but he always looked out for me, i also remembered that when i was away at school, i would call sunday mornings when i knew he was home by himself to just chat w/ him. so, although i was annoyed w/ him alot, he affected me in a way that i couldn't help but cry alot and still cry on occasion even though he's been dead almost 10 years. just a thought, a fond memory draws it out.

in short no, you are not.

Answer:
Absolutely not. It's normal to mourn the death of a loved one.

Answer:
If he only died yesterday, you should still be mourning. It might even get worse as the funeral day comes. Don't worry about it, its healthy to cry. If you were still crying in a month from now I'd be suggesting anti-depressants, but 2-3 weeks is OK for mourning. Sorry about your loss.
