This week, join Your Favorite Librarian for this week's episode exploring specific issues and stigmas of Mental Health for People of Color, especially with Black and African communities.

Divided into 4 sections, jump knee deep into the conversation at your own pace.

I. Diagnosis, Disabilities, and Diets
II. Self-soothe, self-medicate, and self-isolate
III. Where is your support?
IV. Third Home: The Need to Connect

This week's paired title comes from Your Favorite Librarian's favorite author-- "For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf" by Ntozake Shange.

From the difference in professional and holistic help, self-diagnosis vs professional opinions and information, the trauma of dissociation and detachment, along with how to be your own cheerleader and not your best critic.
