You need to get different friends or join a men's group where that is encouraged. Also, you should express pain in places and with people where it's safe to do that. Expecting strangers on the internet to do that is a gamble. You might find one/some, but it's hardly a given.

Edit: Spend more time reading guys like Robert K. Starr and Mark Greene and Dr. Nerdlove who publishes in Hello, Love. Start learning how you can be a part of co-creating change in our culture because dismantling or even shifting harmful norms benefits men just as much as it benefits women. Educate yourself on what women’s experiences in this culture are really like (and not how you imagine they are) and also spend more time doing things that are nurturing and supportive of your own mental and emotional health, rather than wallowing in disempowering stories that have no real basis in actuality. Sure, men have real problems, but for the most part, they aren’t the ones that you have named.
