F5 · FRAME NOTE
Open frame
Leave it open a minute — pause before you react.
Open frame is one minute before a reactive email or call. Load and irritability are often physiology plus backlog — not a permanent gutter ball.
Open protocol
- Pause one minute before reactive messages
- Walk between meetings
- One boundary when the alley is crowded
- Weeks of short fuse — counselor or Lane check
Heads up: Men's wellness literacy only — not diagnosis or treatment. No testosterone boosters, online prescription pitches, or miracle vitality supplements. If energy, sleep, or body changes worry you beyond your usual pattern, speak with licensed clinicians promptly. Habits unchanged after several weeks — schedule a routine visit.
