Sometimes I feel like I am going crazy or losing my mind, is this normal?

This question rivals the first question for the most frequently asked question. There are so many unusual and unnatural feelings and experiences that most grieving individuals wonder if they are going crazy. Sometimes we may think that we see the deceased in a crowd or hear their voice in the quiet during the night or we may have difficulty concentrating or making decisions. While these feelings can be very disturbing, there are quite normal. It is most likely that such sighting or hearing may be caused by our desire to recapture the feeling of their presence and the confusion and difficulty of making decisions is caused by the increased stress of normal grieving.
