This one’s for the dads.

Or the men you love who struggle with anger, withdrawal, or emotional shutdown around their kids.

In this powerful anonymous conversation, a father of two shares what it was like to feel hijacked by explosive reactions—and why therapy, CBT, and intellectual insight weren’t enough. He opens up about the hidden roots of his triggers, the moment he chose to get help, and how he rewired his reactions without shame or a diagnosis.

Whether you’re a dad who loses control—or a mom wishing your partner would finally seek support—this story will give you hope for real change.
