How long should Sims mourn?

My sims does it too, even though she never even met the one she is mourning. This happens about twice a day, even though i have released the spirit to the neatherworld (?). And you do actually still have the urn/gravestone when you do that.

It is pretty annoying because my sims become sad all the time.

I think they should only mourn for a couple of days and then the option to mourn should only be a player command and not something they can choose for themselves.

From what I read this problem should be solved:
http://answers.ea.com/t5/The-Sims-4-Bug-Reports/BUG-Mourning-while-Cooking-is-OTT/m-p/4302095#M8177

well apparently it isn't solved since it still happens to my sims. And it is not only when they are cooking but also during anything else that happens during the day.

If you press (control + shift + C) and type in testingCheatsenabled true you will be able to delete the morning emotion. Then do ( control + shift) and click on the mourning mood.

You should realize that you answered a 3 year old thread, It is highly unlikely the poster still have this problem.

The thread is old, but the problem still exists.  It also helps people who have been looking for fixes--like me!-- when we do a search 🙂
