ericz, I wouldn't say that I have problem with the topic. I remembered that there was an arguement between the two choices... major depression and normal grief. And we agreed that suicide ideation marked the difference.
Back to this Question, in normal grief, there is anger and resentment over a loss. There is also marked psychomotor retardation, that is why it has to be differentiated from Major depression. Any way either of the symptoms is right. Alibism

The answer is "Anger and resentment over a loss" according to source and I agree.
Mild psychomotor retardation, maybe, but not "Marked" psychomotor retardation.
