Does anyone have any experience to share with local group meetings in either the recommended silent format or in a discussion format.
As one who's been the organizer of a few peer social/support groups in the gay community, I'm aware of how quickly the big egos can take over when a group of people get together.
I have found that I've been able to talk about TPON in a limited way in a small therapy group for gay men which I attend, but I worry about bringing in too much spiritual stuff in that setting.
Maybe the silent format is the best and then maybe you can grab coffee afterwards for a little friendly discussion. Now it's sounding a bit like an AA meeting

Any input would be helpful.
Also, I live near Boston. Is anyone aware of anything going on around here?
Thanks.
