It seems like you are. Everyone grieves differently. When we go through something like a death of a loved one we are grieving but trying to get things in order. When we have more time to rest and relax and think the memories start coming back.

Oh Rodney 😞
I’m so sorry for your loss. You are allowed to grieve when and where you need to.
Big hugs to you my friend ❤🙏

It's difficult to say definitively whether or not delayed grief is an actual thing as everyone who has experienced grief has experienced grief in their own way.

Yes.... but no.

We all process hard stuff to the best of our abilities.

Some can do it straight away.
Some....it takes decades.
Some only half process it and bury the rest.

Often the brain'll put shit on hold till there is emotional space to roll it round and deal with it.


Perfectly normal 🤗

Grief comes in waves.
