Today’s topic was emotional sobriety and maturity vs immaturity. It’s incredibly powerful to sit amongst a group of men and find safety and support as we get vulnerable and share our feelings, our fears, resentments etc. I’m grateful to have a place to come to and get this sh!t out and heal. I go to individual therapy once a week, but I get far more from this group therapy (AA meeting). These meetings teach me how to be a better man, how to be a better husband, a better father, a better son and brother, how to express my love properly, how to receive love, how to be more tolerant, more understanding, more supportive, how to listen, how to allow others to have their own perspectives, how to accept others, how to not take everything so personal. I don’t know what I’d do without my brothers. I need the connection. I need the support. I need to be of service to my brothers. I need to be available to support them too. We all need each other . I’m not alone anymore.
