How do I really F E E L the forms? The symbol forms in my head are shit, I don't like them. How do I study this? Can I even? I must return to grinding; make haste

Practice drawing cross contour lines around basic shapes (spheres, cylinders, etc).

You can even take a photo of something and draw cross contour lines around it. That's the sort of stuff I did that helped me feel forms.

Construct your figures with boxes. They most clearly their relations in space. Do lot's of close ups with high distortion and extreme angles with overlapping forms to avoid drawing box symbols and actually force yourself to think about it 3 dimensionally.
You're gonna have to invest a bit of time into finding good reference first though, since most of the extreme angle closeups is porn and most porn photography has intentional lens distortion.
