When you are grieving, yearning and preoccupation with memories can leave you feeling drained. You might even experience a shift in perception; other people may begin to look like the person in your life who died. You might be at a shopping mall, look down a hallway and think you see the person you loved so much. Or you might see a familiar car whiz past and find yourself following the car in hopes that the person who dies is inside.
Sometimes you might think that you hear the garage door open and the person entering the house as he or she had done so many times before. If these experiences are happening to you, remember: you're not crazy!

This dimension of grief may give rise to the "going crazy syndrome." Mourners often say, "I think I'm going crazy." That's because in grief, thoughts and behaviors are different from what you normally experience. If you feel disorganized and confused, know that you are not going crazy, you are grieving.
