Even now, I still am reluctant to talk about my own feelings about how I felt that day.
Still, there are times again, where I just need time to understand just what happened, and to sort out my feelings about it. YMMV.

Same here. Although I'm known to wear my heart on my sleeve, there are certain things I have a hard time processing in my head.
For me, I think it may actually be a little denial. Certain things are just so monumental and scary that I don't think my head is ready to go there. Sort of like spending nearly a full year after 9/11 crying. I guess that's my way of coping with those emotions.
