I wanted to add to Skeezyks’ post that I believe I grew up about the same time as he did, and have considerable resistance to sharing my innermost feelings. I’ve been in many therapy groups where I’ve made it excrutiatingly difficult for myself by OVER-sharing. That’s maybe something you learn by experience, to honor your own boundaries and not screw yourself over by forcing what is really not comfortable for you.

After all, there are many ways you can learn and grow without chewing up the furniture, even here on this forum. ❤️
