2) All posts must end with a '?'

5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

Join a men’s group. Nothing else in my life has softened my face more.
What is a men's group? Can you elaborate
Sort of like a cross between group therapy and a mastermind group. Mostly we just check in which whatever’s good or bad going on, how it makes us feel. There’s a focus on minimizing the details and sticking to what things feel like right here and now, as a way of getting in tune with what feelings are present.
I had no idea this was true, but I couldn’t identify which feelings I was feeling. I only expressed, and allowed myself to identify, emotions that matched who I was in my story.
Now I feel my actual literal emotions. Directly. It’s made it so much easier to make life decisions. And I feel a lot less out of place in life. I actually feel like part of humanity now.
Sounds fantastic. Is there an organization for such groups? I've never heard of them before.
Maybe apart from masonic lodges...
