The result is that I'm crying more often, and releasing emotional pain more easily and more frequently. In the past, I was afraid to do so, I think. Thinking I looked ridiculous, feeling stupid, etc. and I held it inside. Now, it's starting to come out, and I am feeling much better when it does. Unexpected, but definitely a good thing. It's amazing to see how BAMM is clearing up the things in my life that were holding me back, so I can move forward.
Shannon, this is something that I've always dealt with. Being too afraid to express pent up emotions or talk about issues I deal with. I'm just curious where do you think this comes from? Do you think it's how people condition young boys to suppress those feelings?
