Lemme tell you from personal experience, that's not how bereavement works. After I lost my wife I would have moments of deep grief, mostly when I was alone. And then the rest of the time I'd just go about my life. Normally.

This freaked people out, the fact that I was mostly ok. That I was even happy, much of the time. I started to feel a pressure to perform grief for their sakes. I decided that that was fucked up, and I wasn't going to. I lost a lot of friends round about then. Coincidence? 7/
