Feeling like a heartless freak means that you are not one, QED.
I, too, am the type of person who doesn't let the awful stuff sink in for at least 3-6 months. It's especially awkward if someone else is sharing the bad news with me, because I just stare blankly at them and cannot for the life of me come up with an appropriate response of any kind. You'll get around to recognizing what happened, when you're ready. No use trying to rush it.
