UPDATE: Started going to DadHQ support group meetings

Been lurking here for months and finally went to a local meeting last Tuesday. Ngl, was super nervous. Thought it'd be weird or too touchy-feely.

It was... really good? Just talking to other dads about the stuff we don't talk about with our partners or friends. One guy mentioned he's on anxiety meds, another talked about postpartum depression (yeah, that's a thing for dads too apparently). No judgment, no competition about who has it worse.

Going back next month. Wish I'd done this earlier.
