A compelling, down to earth look into life being mentally ill and Black.
Resource
One of the things that I wish I had more of when I started this journey, is more information and resources. I began this platform so that I can share what I have experienced and learned. I hope that these resources help.
REMEMBER: ALWAYS SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION WHEN YOU ARE NOT FEELING WELL. NONE OF THIS INFORMATION IS A REPLACEMENT FOR MEDICAL CARE.
