I saw my coworker die and i didn't feel anything

This isn't a troll or corny attempt at attention seeking, basically what happend is my 56 yo coworker died of a heart attack it happend in front of me and my boss we tried to save him but i knew he was a goner when i saw him choking on his spit, the ambulance arrived after 10 minutes after his faint
And they tried saving him using machines and adrenaline shots but he was already gone, i couldn't feel anything only after they pronounced him dead i started to sob a little but only for about 10 seconds, then my friend offered me a ride home and told me after adrenaline kicks off I'm gonna feel it but even after 8 hours i don't feel anything and it feels like any other day is this normal or am i mentally unwell?


Tldr:coworker died in front of my eyes, didn't feel anything except a 10 second sob and the rest of my day was normal.

Average or mb slightly lower level of empathy. The are rare cases of highly empathetic people who would actually care about random people death.

Compared to me, my boss and people around were crying, shaking and my boss even broke down as he knew the guy for well over 20+ years, in fact he wasn't actually a real coworker he was just a friend who would come to help us out at work to pass his time as he is retired from his original job. He was heavily ill aswell as he had 4 surgeries, and was taking heavy dosed of meds every day.
