Hello,
(Apologies if this upsets anyone)
A family member (cousin) died very suddenly at the weekend. I hadn't seen them for a few years prior due to not living locally and with Covid and whatnot. We had a disagreement a while back (2019) and hadn't spoken. In the past we were closer and got on better but sadly not in more recent times. Now she's gone. I felt shock and disbelief and also guilt at first but now nothing. Stone cold numbness. I'm sad for her of course as she was only early 50s and sad for her more immediate family but other than that totally detached. I'm worried I am abnormal somehow. Fwiw I do have autistic traits and do struggle with empathy at times, whether this is clouding my reaction I don't know. No one knows for sure yet what caused her death.
