All my life i've been the shoulder that every one has cried on and its not always a bad thing but damn. When i was 13 i found my grandma dead and i was devastated and it seemed like i couldn't cry. i felt like an jerk because everyone else was cryin but me. im sorry but it was hard to deal with and no one seemed to be able to understand that i felt horrible about and every time i say i miss her i hear that im a piece of crap and that i need to move on

Of course you are not a piece of crap... Crying is not the only way to show that you really feel bad or something... Though Im whiner... and I always cry everytime I miss my dad who passed away 4 years ago already! But I just cant move on... I mean, yeah, in some way, I already accepted the fact that he's gone.. But I cant help but cry everytime I miss him.. and I think its just natural to miss somebody you really love....

You are not a piece of crap just because you didn't cry. Seeing what you saw is an awful lot. Don't you think you have suffered enough without you putting yourself down. You're a tough kid! I know you'll be fine someday... Here's wishing you the best. Good luck!

Wow you are really screwed up and I hope you can sort this emotional problem out. You are not as you describe because you react how you were probably taught to react, that is to hide your feelings. A few lines from me will not cure your problems but be assured you are a worthy human being and you should not be so hard on yourself. It is natural that you miss someone you were fond of and being able to cry or not does not change that.

of course, we all need somebody in our life that we can lean on. I am sorry for what you are actually going through. Maybe because you didn't show any emotion when you grandma passed away people think you're not missing her. If you not getting the support with your family, try a friend. I find that friends are better to lean on sometimes in situations like these than family.

When people lose someone close sometimes a sense of shock sets in. They are unable to express grief the way people think they should and emotionally shut down. There is not a thing wrong with delayed grief! Its perfectly normal and I believe that you will as that rude person put it 'move on' but only in your own time and When your ready don't let anyone push you into it!
