Your chances of getting a “bad therapist” is 80% greater messing around with that BetterHelp platform. I wish influencers esp black influencers stopped promoting them and started promoting more local therapist with independent businesses. Therapy for black girls is a good start
Amanda self diagnosing herself with Autism and successfully garnering the hearts of the black community with her grade school racism stories to create the perfect shield to make a poor attempt to make us dislike Issa Rae is A1 manipulation.
Secondly, I would appreciate these staffing agencies stop posing as actual employers to at the end of the day offer me a position at Better Help. I know where do go if I want to get on their platform, we all do.
I plead the blood of Jesus over whoever is reading this. Untimely death will never be your portion in Jesus mighty name. Life will not be snuffed out from you or your loved ones, may the heavenly hedge of protection be upon you and your people in Jesus name ! Amen !!
I am no longer a member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority incorporated. I denounced my letters since May 2020. I was a LOUD and proud member. So I will finally publicly denounce my letters 🙏🏿.

You should personally speak with women who were homemakers about this instead of mocking folks…women historically evolved out of those traditional roles due to abuse and not being able to be self sufficient if the relationship goes bad. It literally was slavery for some
So many folks are talking about wanting and needing therapy but not being able to afford it. Like this if you want me to add some resources and ways to pay for therapy added to this thread? You deserve the help you are looking for.
Something about people using the pain of underserved or underrepresented groups / people for their advantage pisses me offf. Because she really had people like “I feel so seen” “I cried because someone is finally speaking about Autism” . Like…??
No but, this is a real topic. Mental heath doesn’t stop at the mental illness, it’s also the way it effects the MH of those around them, esp the support system
Christians need therapy more than anyone, we have kingdom work to do, we have purpose to fulfill...our minds must be right. Optimum health is needed...if our health fails we fail..be a healthy contributor to your ministry we need you healthy !!
There’s a handful of y’all who have had good experiences with a BetterHelp therapist. I am always happy and exited to see my people in therapy. I am not taking that away from you !! Love it for you! But let’s be real…a broken clock is even right twice a day.
@ShesAltard
People should do what gives them the least anxiety and promotes healthy relationship dynamics. I think it’s not weird, but a reflection of the scrutiny and shame from society around failed relationships. This is heightened with black women. We aren’t allowed to get it wrong.
@siusview_
Omg the weird stuff they do runs so deep idek know where to start 😩😩. You can tell when a platform was created solely for money and not to actually help people.
I’m going to need people to stop stepping into Christian content online but not really sold out for Christ or committed to the call..gaining followers..then saying sike I’m not longer in the faith. That’s spiritual abuse too 🤷🏿♀️.

He literally drove her insane. It’s actually sad how men can abuse women, but when they react to the abuse and mistreatment that’s all that’s talked about. Granted she could of left him and it’s not ok to be physical, but he drove her to that point. He is responsible for it

The truth !!!! They don’t want real ethnic food. Becouzzz sometimes the best food even has a little smell you just gotta get past all that. Not everything “Jollof rice”
I encourage anyone in a D9 org to pray and ask God with a open heart to reveal to you about the organization you joined or are interested in. I believe strongly in the revaluation power of God. He will guide you.
Some people will just be overall more likable if they just stopped playing and went to therapy. Get the healing you need so you can have friends again pls.
People can’t wait to use someone’s divorce to be like LOOK YALL ARE WRONG! 🍪???? Pray it’s never you. Send them good wishes this is obviously a source of pain for someone

@EmilyVROOOM
Ehhhh, this is the mindset the good sector of men have. Most men fall into the category of what she’s saying. There’s literally men out here that complain about paying for dates. They could give a rats ass about being stable for a family. They not even trying to spend $40
@blackkyari
Omg yes, I remember they straight lied about my credit score, and I was like that doesn’t sound right. But I signed anyways. How do I take action on this?
@duijarrod
It came across as such as she positioned it like …I was protecting her…now I am no longer willing to protect her. Protect her from what? I think she was aware it could change our perspective of her. I do think she has a right to voice her experience.
Remilekun is actually super cute.
Life update: decided to conquer my fear of dogs and got this cutie. Don’t let the face fool you. This is hard but worth it so far 🐶🐾

Ok so this is a thread of resources to get connected to quality mental health services 🧵✨
I will break this down into..
1. Helpful therapy directories
2. Quality mental health tech platforms
3. How to pay for therapy
3. Other ways to get support
I am ready to radically let go of the concept of Black excellence and desperately hold on to pursing Godly excellence. The truth is being seen as excellent to man and the world Is impossible without constantly betraying yourself, not quiet being enough, falling short.

@AnnaTheFeminazi
This is a cultural thing. Asian culture “personal space” isn’t a thing. Esp in China they live in really congested environments where people stand and walk really close to one another. This is just a misunderstanding. She literally doesn’t see this as wrong.
We need to shift our way of thinking and how we approach the word of God. Just because it’s documented in the Bible doesn’t mean God is telling us to do it or that’s it’s ok .
Once I started reading some stories in depth I realized this.
Christian girlies don’t want to admit the okie doke these Christian men will do for them right in front of their eyes. Dress modestly but will cheat on you with IG Baddest and blame you for not looking good. Abeg don’t fall for it.
I think my biggest pet peeve is Christians posting these before and afters of them being saved..and the before picture is just them in a body con dress and early 200 aesthetic. Like what did we come here to see ? Pls 😂😂😂😂😂😂.
The black community is still confused about what gentle parenting is. Just because you aren’t beating your child doesn’t mean you aren’t creating space for discipline , correction and redirection.
one of these days ima talk about how the millennials taking that gentle parenting shit a lil to far bc they are traumatized from how they parents raised them. I ain’t saying it was right and that a shift ain’t need to be had. But it’s like we went from one extreme to the other
1. Helpful Therapy Directories 💜
: this is the most popular and will give you access to many therapist in your area. You can also filter through to look for a black therapist or a specific insurance that they take
:
Let’s also...read the room. She’s clearly going into some type of water, it makes sense for her to be wearing a bathing suit 🤦🏿♀️ and showing her skin. She was talking about the lot that do it unprovoked for likes. But go off
@blkgirlculture
Providence RI doesn’t have clean water either, it’s just not publicized yet. Medical students at Brown are urged not to drink the water because of links to cancer
This showering conversation is interesting. Maybe it’s cuz I am a therapist. Someone saying they don’t shower everyday isn’t surprising to me, it’s a symptom. People should be nicer.
@moniesuuh
I don’t agree really they verify their therapist and have them add their licensing information. I am on there myself. It’s a pool of therapist and it deff takes work to pick through so I can deff feel that and the frustration.
Nah black women explain this. Y’all made fun of Derick Jaxson’s wife for wearing a bonnet on camera. Now y’all supporting the bonnet ministry. Make it make sense pls,
People will really ask me where I am from. I will tell them I am Nigerian...and they will really start telling me about the time they went to Rowanda....aye won ko bosi
You can’t be close to 13 people as a full adult. I started ranking friends and it helped me so much, some people associates, some people are conditional, some are good friends and some are close friends. Knowing your place in people’s life will save you so much disappointment
Some pastors be chatting and yall ingest it into your spirit like it’s nothing. When the word said guard your heart it wasn’t just talking about romantic relationships. Ask more questions, rely more on the Holy Spirit vs man
My idea of soulmates have been confronted over the years. Not sure if it exist, or if it’s even helpful.
One person can’t give you all you need. We get what we need from community. I will stress this forever.
