Hi, Erik.

esthers has pretty much summed up the best piece of advice you could get here right now.

Reminders: We all feel sad(ness) sometimes and it does not necessarily indicate chemical depression.

To me, death is this big part of life which the western culture is not comfortable with. Taboo.
I like to think and analyse and discuss it with people a lot. One inevitable moment of loneliness and we're all gonna have to face it some day...

I think it's pretty healthy to question and discuss it; the curiousity aroused by death is natural and shouldn't be regarded as morbid, insane or abnormal.

Good Luck :-)
